there was a plot to as sass national the former prime minister of montenegro and take over montenegro's parliament. the suspect in that case scurried back to moscow and russian authorities refused to turn them over to the montenegro government and make them available for questioning in moscow. to this day support for n.g.o.'s appropriate began did a continue to rail against the russian government. we need to send a strong message of resolve. mr. president, this is not an isolated circumstance with russia. we've seen how they interfered in our elections. we see what they're doing in europe today. we see all of these different activities by russia, and we've got to protect ourselves. one way we can protect ourselves is by making our own decisions as to who should be admitted into nato. another is that we should have an independent commission take a look at what russia was doing in their interference with our elections and what they're doing in trying to compromise our democratic system of government. i think the events of what's occurred in recent weeks of additional contacts that russia

and montenegro is ready. they've made significant progress on internal reform especially in the area of rule of law and security sector reform, the ministry of defense has met all of the requirements for nato membership. it's moving to modernize its military. it's moving to try to operationallize itself in a way it can interact with the u.s. and european equipment. it's replacing its aircraft that previously required russian spare parts, so that they are more compatible with european and american air equipment. it is work that montenegro needs to do, but now it can continue under the umbrella of the alliance. so i'm very happy that we are taking an important step here to signal that the open door policy of nato is still in practice. i think there was some doubt, frankly, after years and years of montenegro's desire to join, amid both the interest from georgia and prior to the crisis in ukraine, ukraine to join. there was some concern that some of these trans-atlantic institutions were closing down, and this i

this is in montenegro's interests. it's in europe's interests and it's in the national security interests of the united states. nato is the most successful security alliance in history and it is essential to the stability, freedom and prosperity that europe enjoys and that the united states has enjoyed really to that stability that's existed since post world war ii. nato has provided the security stability for the freedoms we enjoy and the prosperity. montenegro's accession to nato will help the alliance become more resilient and it will deter russian aggression on europe's eastern flank, which is why the alliance invited montenegro to become its 29th member last year. now, i agree montenegro is a small country, but it is geo politically important. it's membership in nato will complete the alliance's control of the adriatic coastline and that will strengthen nato's southern border. since its independence from serbia tense year as -- ten years ago it was pursued inclusion and it's been a good partner to nato. montenegro

because montenegro, our nato partners, deserve at least that much. it is now time to stand up strong for montenegro, for their right to self-determination, for the right to joining nato, for the west and for nato. so, mr. president, i hope that we are going to be able to get this through this afternoon, and i will defer to my colleague from arizona for him to make the unanimous consent agreement. mr. mccain: mr. president, i would to thank the senator from new hampshire and the senator from maryland. it probably doesn't matter a lot to many of our voters that on this issue it probably is not something that's uppermost in their minds. but because of your hard work here in the senate and your in-depth knowledge of the issues and challenges that facthis country in what is arguably the most uncertain and turbulent times in the last 70 years, you've taken the time and effort to learn about this small country, this small, beautiful country whose only wish -- whose only desire is to be part of our community of nato so that they can come under the umbrella o

in terms of montenegro, yeah. but they sent a handful of them. look at this from the perspective of not only is it it anncreasin our defense obligation. there is a messaging issue, we are adding a country into nato and the nato countries need to pay for for their defense. they have an obligation to pay more. but when this becomes an issue, it's how russia views this. this much great sensitivity as there was with kosovo to the u.s. and picking off and pulling into the alliance from the russian perspective. they view this as an aggression. to say someone is doing putin's work. this is like saying someone was a fascist.tin's work, you are a fascist. kennedy: from fascist to racist to putinist. >> is he say rand paul is an aide to vladimir putin? or is it more subtle? this is while for the debate. you cut off debate when you call someone a lackey of putin. it's not by bringing montenegro into nato. russia is trying to push the boundaries here. and you have to at some point say this matters. the boundaries and borders matter we are going to push back

interesting enough, my understanding is montenegro does spend 2% of their gdp on defense as an aside. i'm well aware without having spent as much time on the language as you have, although i have read it, that it was aspirational and a goal that was laid out for nato. what we have seen with the trump administration now is increased pressure recognizing the challenges. again, this is all about transforming nato to be relevant to meet the security challenges that we confront today. a recognition that in order to remain viable, in order to remain credible, in order to deter conflict in europe, we need to make sure that nato meets its requirements for defense spending. so i won't speak certainly or try to say what the president meant to say. i'm not going to do that. but i would say that what you have read is not inconsistent with what i heard from the vice president, secretary of state, secretary mattis or anything else, president trump has said. what he's said is that his expectation is that nato nations carry their fair share of the burden in the alliance and that all 28 nations today

the admission -- administration is backing montenegro. that is not a position russia likes. the ambassador to the u.n. had tough frederick for russia. this has not been what president putin thought it would be. charlie: i am asking this as a question. iesident trump has said recognized the russians made an effort to interfere in our election but other countries did as well, or something to that extent. what is the most clear example of where president trump has reflected his understanding of what the russians did or attempted to do? >> in terms of the cyber attack? charlie: yes. privately, when i was talking to people writing this story, there is a recognition internally that russia did have involvement in the election but also that they continue to do things that are obviously classified. the public does not see it but the president sees them. that has given the president's as well. charlie: what was his hope during the campaign when he refused to criticize russia for the relationship? clearly, he thought the russians might cooperate in antiterrorist measures. >> yes. and t

yes, they were active in montenegro. we know that for sure, causing violence during their parliamentary election. they're very active right now in western europe. russia is trying to use our democratic system of government to undermine our democratic system of government. they're anxious to discredit free and fair elections. >> does it strain credulity that ambassador kislyak came to the office of senator sessions in september in the midst of the fall election and that they didn't talk about the campaign for president? >> my own view is that the visit by the russian ambassador, he was going to use that as an opportunity to get as much information as he could to the russian government about our elections. i can't tell you what senator sessions emote investigation was. it can't tell you what the purpose of that meeting was. we need to know that. i can tell you how the russians operate. they use every opportunity to get intelligence information for their purposes. at that time they were trying to attack the integrity of the

the resolution saying montenegro should be allowed to enter the nato alliance. rand paul objects.ense. >> no justification for his objection to having a small nation be part of nato that is under assault from the russians. so i repeat again, the senator from kentucky is now working for vladimir putin. >> i think he makes a really, really strong case for term limits. i think maybe he's passed his prime. i think maybe he's gotten a little bit unhinged. >> the senate is the upper chamber, right, gentlemanly -- >> they should take a road trip together and make a playlist together? >> maybe they should just take a long drive. >> again, we laugh about these things but this lack of civility matters when you're trying to negotiate, right? legislate? >> and fascinatingly, president trump has been talking in recent days about the old washington, where democrats and republicans squabble during the day and went out and had dinner at night and got along and how there's an absence of that and how he wishes that existed. good luck. >> john mccain remembers, though, washington where democrats n r
