“Instead of taking obvious steps to pressure the aggressor, President Trump does nothing, and we will investigate this frozen opportunity to end the war,” the senators said.
According to The New York Times, Joe Baiden Washington’s presidency introduced more than 6200 sanctions, which averaged more than 170 a month, directed at the company, trade and financial operations that support the Russian military machine.
Senators are convinced that the lack of pressure from the United States allows Putin to continue the war against Ukraine.
“Americans have to ask themselves why the President, who promises to complete the Great War, instead allows the aggressor to act with impunity,” they wrote.
Literally: “In addition to key assistance stopping for Ukraine, President Trump has been blocking regular renewal of sanctions and export control for over five months, which allows more and more violators in China and other countries of the world to continue supplying weapons to a Russian military machine.”
Details: The refusal to use existing tools “inspires Putin to continue the war,” the senators add.
