Congressman Lamborn Releases Statement in Response to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Joint Address to Congress

March 16, 2022

Washington, D.C.- Congressman Lamborn released the following statement in response to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's joint address to Congress this morning:

"President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's moving remarks to Congress this morning illuminated the imperative of free people everywhere to stand with Ukraine. President Zelenskyy conveyed a simple message: the Ukrainian people will continue to fight for their country. Unfortunately, President Zelenskyy's resolute leadership stands in direct contrast to the lead-from-behind approach of the Biden Administration. It is because of immense pressure from Congress that sanctions have been imposed on Russia and vital assistance has been given to Ukraine. President Zelenskyy made it clear that time is running out for the Ukrainian people if more is not done. We must stand with Ukraine."
