Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wy.) said Sunday that President Trump made the right decision to cancel his bilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G-20 Summit, and urged the U.S. and NATO to take stronger action in response to Russian aggression toward Ukraine.

"Putin is somebody that respects strength and territory. Words don’t mean much to him. Action does, so I think we need to do more," Barrasso said on NBC's "Meet the Press."

He suggested the U.S. send ships to the Black Sea, and encouraged NATO to do the same in a show of force against Russia. He also suggested providing additional anti-aircraft and anti-ship weaponry to Ukraine.

"Putin respects strength and action. He will not stop until he is stopped. He can smell fear, and that’s the way he acts," said Barrasso, who sits on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
