Standing With Ukraine: The Urgent Call for Continued U.S. Support

Two years into the Ukraine war, the United States faces a critical juncture: Will Congress rise to the occasion and bolster security assistance to support Ukraine’s fight for sovereignty and democracy?

As we approach the solemn second anniversary of the illegal invasion of Ukraine, the urgency for the U.S. Congress to approve security assistance has never been greater. Robert Benson, senior policy analyst for National Security and International Policy at the Center for American Progress, explains how Russian President Vladimir Putin’s relentless war of aggression has terrorized the people of Ukraine and makes the moral and strategic case to stop Putin now.

The positions of American Progress, and our policy experts, are independent, and the findings and conclusions presented are those of American Progress alone. A full list of supporters is available here. American Progress would like to acknowledge the many generous supporters who make our work possible.
