Congressmen on Missile Defense Caucus Blast President Obama's Abandonment of European Missile Defense

Statement

Date: Sept. 17, 2009
Issues: Defense

Congressman Gregg Harper (MS-03):

"President Obama's announcement to abandon the missile defense system in Poland and the Czech Republic is an unreasoned decision that will strengthen our enemies at the expense of our European allies. The Obama Administration's poor judgment has already cost America $1.2 billion for missile defense research and development, weakening our national security. Our European allies deserve more from this administration than broken promises, political rhetoric and little to no action."
