Regarding the Sept. 25 article “U.S. reluctance to relax weapons restrictions confounds Kyiv, some allies”:
Russian President Vladimir Putin has no regard for international law or human rights. Since its invasion, Russia has inflicted a constant stream of atrocities aimed at breaking the spirit of the Ukrainian people.
