"This Administration is quick to react when the Russians release information relating to the election, but when it comes to violating nuclear treaties, the President only seems willing to drag his feet. To be clear, any Russian involvement in our political process is unacceptable. But this Administration's failure to confront the Russians for cheating on the INF Treaty encourages more Russian misbehavior and leads to a more dangerous world."
Chairman Nunes said:
“The Obama Administration’s lack of response to Russia’s flagrant violations of the INF treaty is yet another misstep contributing to the spreading perception of American weakness and indecisiveness. The ‘strategic patience’ touted by this Administration is a ridiculous euphemism for passivity and paralysis that invites further aggressive actions by Russia and other international pariahs. ‘Strategic patience’ is a misleading description of this administration’s policy – it is more accurate to call it ‘strategic incoherence.’”
