                       FAILING WAR CRIMINAL 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, I attended the Munich 
Security Conference last week where Danish Prime Minister Mette 
Frederiksen correctly identified the Ukrainian war as the Russian war 
in Ukraine.
  In maniacal, murderous efforts to resurrect the failed Soviet Union, 
war criminal Putin has oppressed the people of Russia, invaded Ukraine, 
maintained occupation of Moldovan Transnistria, invaded Ukrainian 
Crimea, seized South Ossetia and Abkhazia of Georgia, and rigged the 
Georgian Parliamentary election, which was won by the courageous Salome 
Zourabichvili. He virtually annexed Belarus by rigging a Presidential 
election won by Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya and then invaded Ukraine 
twice, where Ukraine, successfully armed with Javelin missiles by 
President Donald Trump, has resisted.
  Desperate war criminal Putin has confirmed his failing attempt to 
resurrect the failed Soviet Union, threatening the Baltic Republics and 
even Poland.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops as the global war on terrorism 
continues. Open borders for dictators put all Americans at risk of more 
9/11 attacks imminent, as warned by the FBI. President Trump is 
reinstituting existing laws to protect American families with peace 
through strength.
  Our sympathy to the family of the legendary Roberta Flack, who will 
always be cherished for her loving connection to the American people.
