Reschenthaler: 'We need to have real sanctions on Russia oil'

PITTSBURGH (Newsradio KDKA) - U.S. Congressman Guy Reschenthaler, representing Pennsylvania's 14th district, would like to see America retaliate against Russia in two ways.

"We need to have real sanctions on Russia oil," Reschenthaler said Tuesday during the KDKA Radio Morning Show. "Two, I would like to see us institute a no-fly zone of Ukraine, to give the Ukrainians more time to fight back."

Reschenthaler also suggests crippling Russian sectors through cyber attacks, and jamming the country's communications by taking out their satellites.

"But here's the issue with it, we are in a much weaker position than we were a few years ago for two big reasons," said Reschenthaler.
