Statement from Representative Adriano Espaillat on Russia’s Unprovoked and Unjustified Attack on Ukraine.

 

NEW YORK, NY – Representative Adriano Espaillat (NY-13) issued the following statement in response to last night’s unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine:

“Strong leaders uphold the rule of law and care about preserving innocent human life, while weak leaders treat people with cruelty and ignore norms, principles, and fair play,” said Rep. Espaillat. “With last night’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion and attack on Ukraine, the Russian government has chosen to launch a premeditated war of choice that will bring catastrophic loss of life and human suffering. U.S. intelligence analysts have warned that 25,000 – 50,000 civilians may die and 1 million to 5 million refugees may be in danger as a result of Russia’s war in Ukraine. In addition, U.S. officials informed the United Nations that Russia is compiling lists of Ukrainians to be killed or sent to camps following a military occupation. Russia has violated the core principles that uphold global peace and security with its intentions to change the borders of a sovereign country by force.
