Kinzinger: Georgia is Occupied, Which is Enough for Me to Let it Join NATO

"The fact that Georgia is occupied is enough for me to let the country join NATO," Congressman Adam Kinzinger said in an interview with VOA's Georgian Service.

In his words, "Russia is a weak country, which will continue creating problems."

"Russia is playing a negative role not only in terms of influence but also in terms of creating mass instability. They know this, that's how Russia behaves. Russia is much weaker than America. They will continue to create problems. As I told European leaders in a speech to the Atlantic Council yesterday, it is time for us to be two times more involved in Georgia and not to allow Russia to bully us. The fact that Georgia is occupied is enough for me to let Georgia join NATO. We should not be intimidated by such a weak country called Russia," Kinzinger said.
