«The invasion of Russia into Ukraine and its criminal annexation of Crimea is too often ignored by the rest of the world. If you could give more weight to this issue in any way, I would be very grateful to you», – responded Congressman Steve Chabot to Mike Pompeo’s statement

Pompeo mentioned his trip to Ukraine during his service in the CIA,as reported by Voice of America.

«The last work visit I made in Ukraine was the trip to Donbas, where I saw the challenges which Ukraine and its people faced with. This is a very serious problem. Russians annexed one-fifth of the Ukraine’s territory. We must never forget that this was happened», – Mr Pompeo added.
