Why should Ukraine cede any territory to Russia, who was the aggressor in this war.

I hope that this Congress and Senate will support Ukraine as it should have for the last 18 months and provide more weapons and allow Ukraine to share their drone technology with the US. Ukraine has proven over and over again their brilliance, their resilience and their ability to outsmart Russia. They deserve our support along with the European Union. Also agree with Ann below-I don't understand why Ukraine should cede ANY territory to Russia who started this war in the first place. That would be like saying that when we became independent from England 250 years ago, we should have given England some of our territory.

The Russian investigation under Mueller was no hoax. There is a need to be wary of the Russian asset, Trump, or as the Italian press now labels him, the "A**hole."

Like Trump, you are dressing up defeat in the colors of victory. These arrangements could have been made years ago, without the huge expense of blood and gold.

You love to give in to the imperialist terrorists, Jake. God forbid Israel chooses MA D4 as its next conquest - we'd be forced to turn over the keys to our homes by a smiling Jake Auchincloss as he welcomes the Israelis to their new homeland.

Not one bit of land should be forfeited to Russia. Nothing. Peace should not come at the expense of Ukraine.

The USA should be sanctioning and cutting all financial/military ties with Israel and fully supporting Ukraine.

Is this about democracy or your donors?

"The West must not lose its will" -- Amen. Great sound reasoning -- hope the leaders we appoint to chair committees (like you!) will listen to and get behind your plan. Keep up the great work Jake!

Trump is indeed the "A"hole. Europe must not return to their callous support of Ukraine. Ukraine deserves respect and solid weapons support from Europe and the West. I was an American Marine officer and I have always condemned the lazy "let others do the fighting" cowardly policy of European Nations while I volunteered my ass for the cause of peace. Opinion and commitment seems to be changing to favor Ukraines valiant effort to join democracy. Do not miss this opportunity to destroy Russian barbarism. Stop Putin and illuminate Trump's misplaced allegiance and traitorous attitude. Trump is the first POTUS to need a classroom lesson in patriotic loyalty. Perhaps he would benefit from a factual class in Russian history.

I agree that Ukraine should not have to cede any of it's territory but it can look to possible reunification later on when Putin is dead and buried. Russia need Ukraine more than Ukraine needs them.
