                                UKRAINE

  Mr. McCONNELL. Earlier we had an opportunity to hear from Ukraine's 
President Petro Poroshenko. Ukraine is a friend of the United States 
and it has looked to the West to meet naked Russian aggression.
  As President Poroshenko's speech reminded us, there are objectives 
that bind our countries, such as the pursuit of freedom and 
representative government. Let's make it clear. We stand with Ukraine. 
We stand with the Ukrainian people in their struggle against external 
aggression and we stand with them in their struggle to secure the same 
kinds of rights and liberties each of us enjoy in America.
