Congresswoman Pou Supports Patriot Missile Systems to Ukraine

WASHINGTON, DC – Congresswoman Nellie Pou (D-NJ-09) today reacted positively to statements by President Donald Trump at the NATO summit that the United States would grant Ukraine a license to manufacture Patriot missiles

“I welcome the President’s statements at NATO. America providing Ukraine with patriot missile technology is long overdue and should have been done some time ago,” said Congresswoman Pou. “Now we must follow through. After nearly five years of horrific war, against all odds, Ukraine is clearly winning. Ukraine’s courage and resilience against Russia’s brutality is incredible. America must give our Ukrainian allies whatever resources they need to finish the job and get the best terms they can obtain to preserve their country. At the same time, Congress should take up and pass our new sanctions packages to put even more pressure on Vladimir Putin to end his war.”
