Establishing that it shall be the policy of the Government of the United States to recognize the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of Ukraine within that nation's internationally recognized borders as established in 1991.
Sponsored By: Representative Fitzpatrick, Brian K. [R-PA-1]
Introduced
Summary
This bill would make non-recognition of Russian territorial claims the exclusive policy of the U.S. government. It would affirm Ukraine's sovereignty and independence within its internationally recognized 1991 borders and declare that Russia illegally occupied and annexed Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. The resolution cites the legal principle ex injuria jus non oritur and the 1940 Welles Declaration to frame its declaratory stance.
