RESOLUTION
Acknowledging the third anniversary of Russia's further invasion of
Ukraine and expressing support for the people of Ukraine.
Whereas, on February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale, unprovoked, and
illegal invasion of Ukraine, which followed Russia's illegal annexation
of Crimea in 2014 and its illegal occupation of parts of the Donbas
region in 2014;
Whereas the international community recognizes the sovereignty and full
territorial integrity of Ukraine within the 1991 borders; and
Whereas the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the people of Ukraine have demonstrated a
determined resistance that has prevented Russia from taking control of
their country: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate--
(1) expresses continued solidarity with the people of
Ukraine and condolences for the loss of tens of thousands of
Ukrainian people to Russian aggression;
(2) rejects Russia's attempts to militarily seize sovereign
territory in Ukraine and elsewhere in Europe;
(3) reaffirms the support of the United States for the
sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine;
(4) commends NATO, the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, and
the international community for their continued efforts to
support Ukraine's defense and the protection of human rights on
its territory;
(5) supports Ukraine's aspirations to integrate into Euro-
Atlantic structures;
(6) recognizes Ukraine's efforts to strengthen its
democracy during wartime;
(7) encourages the transatlantic community to continue to
denounce Russia's illegal and unprovoked war in Ukraine and
counter Russian aggression; and
(8) emphasizes that Ukraine must be a participant in
discussions with the Russian Federation about Ukraine's future.
