In a recent press release, Sarah Longwell, executive director of Republicans for Ukraine, criticized the recent shift in rhetoric among some Republican leaders regarding Russia and Ukraine. She emphasized that while Donald Trump alleges Ukraine instigated the conflict and labels Zelensky as a dictator, many Republicans still advocate for supporting international allies. A recent poll shows that the majority of Americans agree that America should maintain its leadership role internationally. The organization has initiated a campaign to reinforce this message among GOP voters and has developed resources like testimonials and a scorecard for Congress members about their voting on Ukraine-related issues.
Sarah Longwell, executive director of Republicans for Ukraine, stated that Republican leaders historically recognized Putin as a "murderous dictator," demonstrating a shift in some party views.
Longwell emphasized that Trump is fabricating narratives, claiming Zelensky is the true dictator and suggesting the U.S. disengage from global leadership.
She pointed out that many Republicans still recognize the importance of standing with international allies, and polling indicates that a majority of Americans share this understanding.
The organization has launched a campaign with a YouTube playlist of GOP voters urging support for Ukraine and a scorecard grading Congress members on their votes.
