Clinton Calls for Harsher Punishment of Putin

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called on the U.S. to “impose even greater costs” on Russian President Vladimir Putin as punishment for Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, Axios reports.

Said Clinton: “There are more banks that can be sanctioned and taken out of the so-called SWIFT relationship,” she said. “There is an increasing call for doing more on gas and oil.”

She added: “I think now is the time to double-down on the pressure.”
