News Biden proposed that Congress leave Putin without a “Christmas present”: what is needed for this by alex 13.12.2023 written by alex 13.12.2023 52 Leader of the Republicans in the Senate said that without resolving the issue of migrants on the border with Mexico, funding/Collage 24 Channel After the meeting with Vladimir Zelensky, the US President called on Congress to approve funding for Ukraine before the holidays. Senate Republicans believe this is unlikely to happen by Christmas. On December 12, Joe Biden held a closed meeting with Zelensky. As a result of these negotiations, the US President once again asked congressmen not to delay in adopting an additional aid package for allies, in particular Ukraine. “Don't give a gift to Putin” Biden, in his address to the American parliament, emphasized that if Congress does not approve funding for supplies to Ukraine before the winter holidays, Putin will receive the best gift for the holidays. The Russian dictator hopes to take advantage contradictions between Republicans and Democrats in order to leave Ukraine without support. So Biden stressed that members of Congress must “do the right thing.” No funding until Christmas The leader of the Republicans in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, said that even if the two parties manage to reach a consensus, it is almost impossible to pass an aid package to Ukraine by Christmas. This (acceptance of funding for Ukraine – Channel 24) is almost impossible – even if we reach an agreement – to develop, pass through the Senate, get to the House of Representatives by Christmas, – the politician said. McConnell noted that Republicans will not compromise unless Biden meets their demands to limit migrants crossing the US-Mexico border. No agreement will be until Joe Biden and the Republicans reach an agreement,” added McConnell. US Aid to Ukraine under threat: what is known In the fall, President Biden proposed that Congress pass an additional aid package to the allies with an estimate of 106 billion dollars (then it grew to 110). Of these, $61 billion was supposed to go to Ukraine. However, Republicans in the House of Representatives did not support the idea of a joint aid package. As of now, Congress has not yet passed the presidential bill. The Biden administration is concerned because the funds provided to support Kiev are expiring, and there is no new funding for Ukraine. December 6, the US President called on Congress to approve funding for assistance to Ukraine, drawing attention to the fact that without it our state will not be able to withstand the pressure of the aggressor, and Putin will not stop and may attack NATO member countries. However, this speech by Biden has not yet changed the situation. The Senate (where Republicans are in the minority) blocked consideration of the bill. This happened allegedly due to contradictions between Republicans and Democrats regarding the “wall” on the border with Mexico. Whether Congress approves funding for Ukraine will determine whether the United States can continue supply our state with funds. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail alex previous post Champions League 2023/24: 14 playoff participants have been decided next post Eccentric millionaire dies after years of seclusion You may also like Lunin not going to Paris: media writes about... 28.10.2024 A fountain of shit as tall as a... 28.10.2024 Tens of Millions of Dollars of Russian Assets... 28.10.2024 Israel Attacks Iran's Nuclear Test Site: Satellite Photos 28.10.2024 Russia sends wounded soldiers to assault due to... 28.10.2024 American equipment in Russia: the 47th brigade showed... 28.10.2024 No Price to Pay: Key Facts About Ukraine's... 28.10.2024 Russia Attacked Kyiv Region with “Shaheds”: Authorities Announce... 28.10.2024 Explosions in Kharkiv on October 28: House Destroyed,... 28.10.2024 Tensions Rise: Who's More Nervous Ahead of US... 28.10.2024 Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
