US policy critic Senator John McCain made some serious remarks recently on the Ukraine crisis.
I currently don’t see a military option for this issue, although we can plan and if the situation gets worse have a reserve plan, especially since Vladimir Putin has pressured other countries such as Poland and the Baltic states who are all NATO members, he said to CNN.
However, in the meantime we have a series of economic and political issues that can force Vladimir Putin pay for what he has done, McCain continued.
It’s necessary to enforce a resolution on them who are responsible for this aggression against Ukraine, he added.
McCain reiterated Russia’s commitment to all of Ukraine’s territorial integrity and said in 1994 the Russians signed an agreement to dismantle Ukraine’s nuclear weapons and they recognized this entire country, which Crimea is a part of. They have even violated their own agreement, he said.
This influential US senator emphasized when aggressions are made and no action is taken, the next step is more aggression
