Dear Editor:

1) It is time to supply long range weapon systems that can reach every military station in Crimea to Ukraine.

2) It is time to supply Patriot Missile systems to protect Ukraine from missile attacks from Belarus.

3) The United States must send a strong message to Belarus that any attacks on Ukraine from within Belarus or across the border with Ukraine will result in retaliatory strikes from the United States. It is time the United States stops running like scared rabbits about escalating the war into a World War III. If we don't stop the invasions now the whole free world will suffer.

I request that all readers send similar messages to Senators Collins and King.
