PUTIN'S WAR ATROCITIES
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, the murderous Putin's
war on Ukraine is criminal.
I am grateful that America and our NATO allies are unified to support
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Ukrainian people.
I have faith in the Russian people, who I have met on numerous visits
across Russia, that they will reject Putin's war atrocities. A nation
of world-significant art, music, and literature can change, and that is
why I am introducing a bill to encourage Russian military defectors
with immediate refugee status in America, with up to $100,000 for any
Russian military equipment transferred to Ukraine. Putin betrays the
troops to death.
Additionally, I will introduce a bill for a bust of President
Volodymyr Zelensky to be placed in the U.S. Capitol, as is the bust of
Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Churchill was the wartime leader of
World War II, and Zelensky is the wartime leader in Putin's war.
God bless Ukraine. God save Ukraine. Long live Volodymyr Zelensky.
