The Indiana Republican blamed both leaders for "playing politics with people's lives" in a Wednesday announcement that provided a few details clarifying her critiques of both governments. Her office did not provide responses to a list of questions from the Washington Examiner.
"President Biden has to stop playing politics, have a clear strategy and align security assistance with our strategy; President Zelensky has to stop playing politics and theater, and start governing to better support his military and local governments; Congress has to establish proper oversight of critical infrastructure and delivery of weapons and aid," she announced, laying out her three "urgent action items needed to get the situation under control."

Spartz's first denouncement is not an unusual one in Republican circles, with many accusing the administration of not going to far enough lengths for Ukraine. However, her negative remarks regarding Zelensky put her in a much smaller category. Outgoing Rep. Madison Cawthorne called the Ukrainian president a "thug" in March.
The final action item from the congresswoman, a way to track the billions of dollars of U.S. military aid provided to the Ukrainian military, is likewise not an uncommon pursuit. Earlier this year, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) held up a Ukrainian relief bill for $40 billion, requiring that an amendment be included in the bill to allow the inspector general to oversee how the funds are spent. Spartz voted for the bill.

"On July 2, 22 years ago, I immigrated to the United States after spending almost 22 years in Ukraine (13 of them under control of the Soviet Union). I was young, idealistic and inspired by the ideas of freedom. These ideas of freedom or more like erosion of freedoms has led me to become involved with politics," Spartz announced.

"When I become a Congresswoman, I intentionally decided not to get involved with any international issues, including Ukraine, since I believed we had too many domestic issues shaking up our country from within. We still do, but when a major war in Ukraine broke out, I understood that I could be of significant value to my colleagues and our country."

"As someone who learns everything from the ground, I spent some time around Europe including a number of visits to Ukraine. Therefore, my understanding of the situation in Ukraine is not from books and theories or surveillance reports and analytics, but from seeing and hearing what’s actually happening with my own eyes,” she concluded.
