Rep. Ryan Zinke: Ukraine Is Not Ready for NATO, They Would Have To Do a Massive Political Reform that They’re Not Willing To Do

EXCERPT:

ZINKE: “You know, my position is I don't think Ukraine is ready for NATO. They'd have to do a massive political reform that they're not willing to do. And the Crimean Peninsula has been, you know, a sticking point. And look, it's the only freshwater port, warm water port that Russia has. And quite frankly, there's been 14 wars fought over the Crimean Peninsula. I don't think you're going to wrestle it out of the hands of Russia anytime soon. And I don't think you should be going to NATO.”
