Ranking Member Shaheen Statement on Trump's New Deadline for Russia to Reach a Peace Deal with Ukraine
Senate Foreign Relations Committee
July 28, 2025
WASHINGTON -- Today, U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, released the following statement on President Trump's revised deadline of "10 or 12 days" for Russia to end its war in Ukraine:
"Too many innocent lives are at stake for President Trump to let Putin continue playing him for time. This shorter deadline is a positive step, but long overdue. The President needs to match his words with real action and not let Putin cross yet another red line. At the same time we must continue to press forward in Congress on bipartisan legislation to impose punishing sanctions on the Kremlin and ensure Ukraine has the support it needs to finally bring Putin to the negotiating table."
