Local experts plead for President Biden to place sanctions on Russia amid a Ukrainian invasion.
CLEVELAND — The world is on the edge of its seat as Russian President Vladimir Putin’s troops push into the border of Ukraine.
Jaskiw is the vice president of the United Ukrainian Organization of Ohio. He said they estimate around 70,000 Ukrainians have settled in Ohio, many in the northeastern region and many are worried for their friends and family back in Ukraine, who are living in a state of fear. Juscelino Colares is a professor of law at Case Western Reserve University. He said Putin and Russia supply a large portion of energy and natural gas, especially to Europe.
Colares hopes President Biden will work with European allies to make Putin rethink the cost of an invasion.
