Keith Kellogg, President Donald Trump’s special envoy for Ukraine, is the first official in the current US administration to comment on Russia’s recent large-scale airstrikes on Ukrainian cities and villages.

Details: Kellogg posted a photo of Kyiv in flames and stated that such attacks constitute a "clear violation of the 1977 Geneva Peace Protocols".
Quote: "This is Kyiv. The indiscriminate killing of women and children at night in their homes is a clear violation of the 1977 Geneva Peace Protocols designed to protect innocents."
More details: Kellogg pointed out that Russia’s latest strikes only underline the need for a ceasefire between the parties.
"These attacks are shameful. Stop the killing. Ceasefire now," he added.
Meanwhile, Republican Representative Don Bacon has proposed a different approach in response to Russia’s weekend strikes. He said the US and its allies must arm Ukraine to the teeth, impose maximum sanctions on Russia and confiscate US$300 billion in Russian assets held abroad.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged the international community, particularly the US, to speak out and increase pressure on the Kremlin.

I'm waiting for the doing part, but it's nice to hear this from a Republican.

While this sounds like a rational response, it is meaningless unless something substantial (i.e., sanctions) is done.
