Graham’s direct speech: “The proposed peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine provides an opportunity to end the war with honor and justice.

Congress should also be able to review the plan, which includes any future security safeguards — just as we have the ability to review any nuclear deal with Iran.”
Details: According to him, a lasting peace in Ukraine should ensure that Russia cannot launch a new invasion in the future.
The senator believes that revising the agreement by Congress will help achieve this goal.
Another Republican Senator Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) believes that putting pressure on the victim and appeasing the aggressor will not bring peace.
McConnell’s direct speech: “What hard concessions are we demanding from Russia? How will limiting Ukraine’s defense against future aggression increase the likelihood of lasting peace?
The price and stability of peace matter, and our reputation is at stake. Allies and adversaries alike are watching: Will America stand firm against aggression, or will we reward it?”
