A bipartisan group of U.S. senators on Wednesday condemned Russia’s killing of civilians in Ukraine on Christmas, accusing Russian President Vladimir Putin of rejecting a holiday ceasefire and instead ordering attacks on one of Christianity’s holiest days.
In a joint statement, Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), John Barrasso (R-WY), Chris Coons (D-DE), Angus King (I-ME), Jerry Moran (R-KS), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), and Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) denounced Russian strikes on a number of cities as Ukrainians gathered to mark Christmas.
