짐 하임즈(Jim Himes) 美연방 하원의원, AmericanTV에 편지 보내와

짐 하임즈(Jim Himes) 美연방 하원의원이 4일 (미국시간) AmericanTV(코리아베스트/애국짬뽕)에 편지를 보내오며 감사를 표했다.

그 편지에는 우크라이라 전황(戰況)과 평화에 대한 하임즈 의원의 견해와 입장이 밝혀져 있다.

하임즈 의원은 코네티컷주(Connecticut州)를 지역구로 하고 있으며, Demoratic Party 소속이다.

AmericanTV(코리아베스트/애국짬뽕)는 주요 현안에 대한 미국 정치인들의 언론 인터뷰를 계속 모니터링 해오고 있다.

주요 인터뷰에 대해서는 해당 정치인 및 보좌진, 지역구 언론 등에 대해 관련 콘텐츠를 배포해 오고 있다.

하임즈 의원는 민도(民度)가 (미국내 다른 지역들에 비해 비교적) 높은 코네티컷주 출신 정치인답게, ‘AmericanTV 관련 매체의 가치(價値)(또는 잠재력)’를 <금방 알아보고는> ‘발빠르게’ 움직이고 있다.

당사(當社)는 2028년 미국 대선(大選) 후보군(候補群)에 하임즈 의원을 편입시켜 앞으로도 그의 정치활동을 계속 지켜볼 예정이다.

하임즈 의원은 하버드대학에서 학사 학위를, 옥스퍼드대학에서 로즈장학생으로 석사학위를 취득한 것으로 알려져 있다.

아래는 편지 전문이다.

Dear Mr. AmericanTV,

Thank you for contacting me about Russia’s brutal war on Ukraine. I appreciate your thoughts and am grateful that you took the time to reach out to me. 

More than three years after Russia launched its illegal and unprovoked full-scale invasion, Ukraine continues to stand resolute with the support of the United States and the free world. At every turn, they have defied the grim predictions of their imminent defeat and occupation, exacting devastating costs on Russia’s military and demonstrating extraordinary courage and patriotism—qualities that seem entirely foreign to President Trump. Instead of standing with democracy, Trump has chosen to align himself with authoritarian aggressors, fundamental American principles.  
The United States has led the world in providing Ukraine with military aid, advanced weaponry, economic assistance, and humanitarian support for refugees. Trump and his allies seek to cut off this lifeline—a betrayal that would damage America’s global standing and embolden our adversaries. Abandoning Ukraine at this critical moment would send a dangerous signal: the United States is no longer willing to stand up for freedom and democracy.

While we must work toward ending this war, peace cannot come at the cost of Ukraine’s sovereignty or security. A just and lasting resolution must make clear that the global community will not tolerate the redrawing of borders through military aggression. I urge my Republican colleagues to reject Trump’s reckless and shortsighted stance—history will not look kindly on those who choose authoritarianism over principle. Make no mistake: Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping are watching our every move.

The pause in military aid and intelligence to Ukraine was unnecessary and unjust, but I am relieved that it was brief. Ukraine, which did not start this war, has shown good faith by agreeing to a ceasefire. The burden is now on Putin. I hope that Russia will likewise agree to a ceasefire, and the Administration should make crystal clear that if it does not, we will redouble our support to our Ukrainian partners. Defense of a rules-based international order from authoritarian assault demands nothing less.

The United States has a clear moral obligation to stand with our NATO allies to provide Ukraine with the support needed to drive Russian forces out once and for all. As Ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee, I remain committed to working with my colleagues to continue to advance support for our ally to help Ukraine secure a decisive victory. Now is not the time for hesitation. Now is the time to stand with Ukraine—firmly, unapologetically, and until victory is won.

Sincerely,

James A. Himes
Member of Congress
