Alabama Republicans believe President Donald Trump is on the right side of history when it comes to dealing with the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and other European leaders on Monday, just days after holding a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin last Friday.
“During the meeting we discussed Security Guarantees for Ukraine, which Guarantees would be provided by the various European Countries, with a coordination with the United States of America,” Trump said Monday on Truth Social, “Everyone is very happy about the possibility of PEACE for Russia/Ukraine.”
Members of Alabama’s Republican Congressional delegation praised Trump’s efforts at achieving peace between the two world powers.
U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) said Trump is a “President of Peace.”
The senator discussed the topic during an appearance on the Fox Business network.
“Thank goodness we got President Trump that’s speaking for us,” Tuberville said. “He’s a peacemaker. I mean, he’s already stopped, what, five, six, seven wars that have been fighting all over the world the last 10, 15 years.”
U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) agreed with Tuberville, also calling Trump a “President of Peace.”
U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saks), who chairs the House Armed Services Committee, said, “President Trump knows that peace through strength works. That’s why I fully support his push for robust security guarantees for Ukraine. These guarantees are essential to deter a third Russian invasion and ensure any peace agreement is enduring.”
U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise), who is also a candidate for U.S. Senate, said “President Trump is doing more for peace across the globe in his first few months than prior administrations did throughout their whole term!”
U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) said “I commend President Trump for the work he continues to do to try and resolve conflicts in the world.”
