> the United States reaffirms as policy its refusal to recognize the Kremlin’s claims of sovereignty over territory seized by force in contravention of international law. In concert with allies, partners, and the international community, the United States rejects Russia’s attempted annexation of Crimea and pledges to maintain this policy until Ukraine’s territorial integrity is restored.
Times have changed. Laws and principles are out the window with the current administration.
I forgot who was president then…
I really hope this administration is the exception and not the new rule… I want my old US back
Hmm… Does this mean nobody will recognize trumps perceived attempt at annexing Canada?
Quick save this document before they delete it.
Clearly, their word is not worth the paper it is printed on.
Oh yeah. There was a time USA was not a puppet of russia.
In 2017 (in Trump’s 1st term) the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA) Law (H.R. 3364) was passed that covered Ukraine and didn’t recognize Crimea a territory of russia. 22 USC 9546 within that Law has the following text:
>**9546. Ukranian energy security(a) Statement of policy**
>It is the policy of the United States—
(1) to support the Government of Ukraine in restoring its sovereign and territorial integrity;
(2) to condemn and oppose all of the destabilizing efforts by the Government of the Russian Federation in Ukraine in violation of its obligations and international commitments;
(3) to never recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea by the Government of the Russian Federation or the separation of any portion of Ukrainian territory through the use of military force;
(4) to deter the Government of the Russian Federation from further destabilizing and invading Ukraine and other independent countries in Central and Eastern Europe and the Caucuses;

Can search the PDF file for 22 USC 9546 to find the section above (there are several more items mentioned under this).
I’m not sure though that a Policy section is considered part of the Law that was passed. Googling if Policies in US Laws are part of the Law, I got this:
>No, policy sections of US laws are generally not considered part of the law itself, but rather guidance or interpretive materials. They may influence how laws are applied, but they don’t have the same binding effect as the law.
