WASHINGTON – Congressman Steve Cohen (TN-9), the Ranking Member of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, also known as the Helsinki Commission, spoke from the House floor Tuesday evening after returning from a Commission-sponsored fact-finding trip to Ukraine.

In his speech, Congressman Cohen said in part:

“The Ukrainian people are courageous and show great valor. They have defeated the Russians in every military aspect that exists except for air power. The Russians have the sky. Our allies and our own country must do all they can to get Ukraine sufficient additional weapons to protect the skies, to protect their soldiers, to protect democracy, protect freedom, and to protect the rule of law in that country and the rest of Europe because Putin would not stop at Ukraine…Slava Ukraini.”
