Senator: ‘The Administration’s “Reset” with Russia Is a Failure’

Published March 4, 2014 9:29am ET



New Hampshire senator Kelly Ayotte called for reseting the “reset” policy with Russia.

“From Syria, to Snowden, to the Crimea, the administration’s “reset” with Russia is a failure.  It’s urgent that we reset the reset policy.  The administration’s weakness and accommodation toward Russia has only invited disdain and aggression from Putin.  Putin’s actions in Crimea demonstrate a brazen disregard for international law, Russia’s prior commitments, the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, as well as the statements and warnings of this administration.  The time for administration statements and red lines is over,” says Ayotte in a statement released by her office.
