The legislation has been attached to Trump's rollback of Obama's policies towards Cuba. Trump wants to keep the Cuban expats in Florida happy for their votes. Now if Trump wants to sanction Cuba he will have to do the same for Russia.

I don't like how some small group of nutjobs can have such such power over foreign policy.

I don't think Germany and the other countries are going to go for this. If they knuckle under in the end it's not good for them to become dependent on a single source of e energy.

He was born in Dnepropetrovsk.
He graduated from the Faculty of Physics, Electronics and Computer Systems at Dnepropetrovsk National University named after Oles Honchar.

It looks like the French are planning to open the DNR office (center de representation) in Marceille. ( This is G. Phillips report about the recent visit of the French delegation to Donetsk hospital.)

Per the agreement to work toward resolving the Ukraine conflict, Trump appoints a new envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker, who currently heads the John McCain Institute for International Leadership. Volker served as U.S. ambassador to NATO from 2008 to 2009 under both former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. Prior to that, he served in a variety of roles at the State Department and National Security Council.

Why can't the land be sold? Is it like the US national Forest?
