Senator Schumer argued that strong sanctions are needed to support Ukraine and pressure Russia to end the war, and he credited Senators from Alabama, New Hampshire, and Blumenthal for leading on the issue. He also contended that President Trump has favored Russia rather than confronting it, and said tough sanctions are the only effective course.
