Reps. Young Kim, R-Calif., and Lou Correa, D-Calif., are leading the letter exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital that is being sent to Biden on Monday afternoon.
to form an"international humanitarian aid airlift" into Ukraine amid Russian President Vladimir Putin’s brutal war.
"As your Administration searches for more options, we strongly urge the consideration of a humanitarian airlift of urgently needed nonmilitary supplies organized and supported by the U.S.," they wrote."In response, Russia would be forced to either agree to supporting the delivery of humanitarian aid or threaten to shoot down planes carrying food and water to a war-torn country, which would further isolate Russia on the world stage and motivate stronger international action.
"Flights flown from countries viewed as non-hostile to Russia into Ukraine for humanitarian missions makes it difficult for President Putin to declare them as enemy combatants and motivates Russian forces to take strict measures to avoid targeting them." Joining Young and Correa on the letter are several of their colleagues, including Republican Reps. French Hill of Arkansas, Fred Upton of Michigan, and Victoria Spartz of Indiana, who was born in Ukraine.
