Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) on Monday urged President Trump to commit additional military assistance to Ukraine

11-26-18    
  Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) on Monday urged President Trump to commit additional military assistance to Ukraine in response to Russian aggression near Crimea.
Menendez, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, called on the Trump administration to bulk up its security assistance to Ukraine, and suggested NATO increase exercises and its presence in the Black Sea.
  The senator said Trump should commit additional resources to Ukraine prior to his expected meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at this weekend's Group of 20 summit in Argentina.  "Once again the Kremlin has shown that it only respects a strong adversary that is willing to stand up to bullies,"  Menendez said in a statement.  "At this precarious time the U.S. cannot afford a weak performance by President Trump at the G20, like we saw in Helsinki."     https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/418250-menendez-calls-on-trump-to-boost-security-assistance-to-ukraine
