Without the approval of a new aid package for Ukraine in Congress, the US’s options are diminishing every week.
This was announced by US Presidential Adviser on National Security Affairs Jake Sullivan during a press briefing in Washington, Ukrinform reports.
” This is formerly affecting our capability to give Ukraine everything it needs. And this development will just raise over occasion,” Sullivan said.
According to him, the US Congress should accept President Biden’s request, which includes assistance to Ukraine and Israel, as soon as possible, since it directly affects US national interests.
The Biden administration has requested funding for Israel, Ukraine, the Indo-Pacific region, and border security. In this request, the White House detailed “what is needed specifically for Ukraine and as quickly as possible.” The government is actively working with Republicans and Democrats in both houses of the US Congress to ensure support for this initiative.
Tallying to him,” the civil pieces of the United States will endure serious damage if we can’t give firm assistance for Israel, Ukraine, the Indo- Pacific field and the rim.”
Disputes over aid to Ukraine: what is known
The administration of American President Joe Biden is proposing to allocate about 61 billion in aid to Ukraine in a package that will combine support for Israel and other countries.
Meanwhile, the new Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, is proposing to vote for a separate aid package for Israel worth $14.5 billion.
Mitch McConnell, despite the position of the Republicans, advocated providing aid to both Ukraine and Israel in one large package.
