Kaptur Statement on House Passage of Russia, Belarus Sanctions Bill

Statement

"The community of civil nations around the world must use their full powers to stop Vladimir Putin's unprovoked, catastrophic war against Ukraine," said Rep. Kaptur. "We are witnessing thousands of Ukrainian civilians and defenders being murdered by a despot. The United States and our allies must assail the ruthless Russian war machine with every tool in our arsenal. These additional economic sanctions and penalties Congress is imposing will hit Putin and his treacherous enablers where it hurts. Let us keep turning the screws tighter and tighter until they bring this tragic war to an end."
