                    WORLD UNIFICATION AGAINST PUTIN

  (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. Mr. Speaker, yet again, the world is 
uniting against war criminal Putin and his murderous invasion of 
Ukraine.
  The European Union is set to sign an agreement with Israel and Egypt 
which will free itself from Putin energy reliance. EU leaders say they 
will reduce Russian oil and gas imports, cutting financial resources to 
the Putin war machine where young Russians are sacrificed by Putin for 
personal gain of oil, money and power, while conducting mass murder in 
Ukraine.
  In the plan, Israel will export natural gas in a pipeline to Egypt 
where it will be turned into liquified natural gas, then delivered to 
EU member states. I appreciate the service of Egyptian Ambassador to 
the U.S. Motaz Zahran.
  During a trip to Israel this week, European Commission President 
Ursula von der Leyen said, The Kremlin's behavior only strengthens our 
resolve to break free of Russian fossil fuels.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected 
America for 20 years in the global war on terrorism as it continues to 
move from the safe haven of Afghanistan to America.
  As the co-chair of the EU Caucus and the Israel Caucus, I especially 
appreciate the cooperation we see today.
