Details:Joe Wilson says Putin is resorting to scorched soil tactics in Ukrainian cities.

"As Americans begin to enjoy the sounds of fireworks in celebration of our Nation’s Independence, war criminal Putin, who is losing his pathetic war, resorts to scorched earth tactics across Ukrainian cities that predate Moscow’s existence," Wilson said.

The Republican congressman expressed hope that Donald Trump's administration would send additional air defence equipment and approved weapons to "help stop this absolute depravity, as allies have and must continue doing at a rapid pace".

"Armed with cheap Iranian and North Korean weapons, Putin delights in fire bombing sleeping families and will continue his imperialist perversions until he is stopped," Wilson said.

Mr President, your policy towards Russia is not working. While we negotiate, Putin bombs Ukrainian cities. Here is Kyiv today. It is time to change strategy. We and our allies must arm Ukraine to the teeth & we need the toughest sanctions. Putin is mocking you and America. pic.twitter.com/Jc7ShlrWIN
