Kraev explained why there are blocking aid to Ukraine in the USA/Collage 24 channel
The US Senate approved a $40 billion bailout for Ukraine by majority vote. However, there were those who voted against.
Such American politicians can be considered “professional brawlers”. This opinion was voiced by the expert of the Foreign Policy Council “Ukrainian Prism” Oleksandr Kraev on Channel 24.
They are working on creating scandals, – Kraev
An international analyst noted the unlikely fact that certain Republicans will be able to break 85% of those who just support a tough policy Administration of the President of the United States on the war in Ukraine.
Like, the Republicans who voted against financial assistance to Ukraine have a very bad trail behind them. This is actually the same ten that voted against Lend-Lease and continues to spin the topic of its financing.
These are professional brawlers. Those, relatively speaking, deputies who in the US Congress are working just to create scandals. On their promotion and support, – said Kraev.
He added that he conducted his own separate study of who exactly these people are. The vast majority of them came to the US Congress quite late, but they were there only during the presidency of Donald Trump.

These are the people who, under Trump, received full power. Most of them, except one, were involved in denying the results of the 2020 presidential election. They filed lawsuits in the Supreme Court. They said that the counting of votes was carried out dishonestly and that this is an increasingly large “equipment of the democrats.”
Why such “political brawlers” are a normal process
However, Kraev noted that the scandalous position does not fit into their more general attitude. The fact is that even the odious congresswoman, who said that “we are taking food from children to give Ukrainians weapons,” at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, stated that Putin and his aggressive war had to be stopped.
Note ! US President Joseph Biden has already signed a bill to allocate $40 billion to Ukraine. He did it just on May 21.
It is interesting that such Republicans are comparable to the conditional Ilya Kiva, the international analyst does not mind. “There's something about it. You should have seen their social media. It's a separate art form,” he said.
Kraev on the scandalous acceptance of US financial aid: more in the video
According to Kraev, there are “political brawlers” in every democracy. That is why one should not think that American or British democracies are immune from this.
“This is normal. We must understand this and be aware that this is not a statement of the whole congress. Indeed, there are people who build on this its political image. This is normal,” the analyst concluded.
Approval of the financial aid law: what else is known
- Financial assistance to Ukraine approved with a week delay. The fact is that the project was blocked by Senator Rand Paul, a Republican from Kentucky.
- He demanded that the law provide for the creation of a special inspector general who would control military aid spending. The politician wanted the amendment to be introduced into the main document of the bill. No one objected, but it would have taken a long time.
- It's interesting that this Rand Paul has been involved in scandals before. In particular, he had ties with Russia and blocked the adoption of US sanctions against the construction of Nord Stream 2.
- However, the law was passed. The main amount of financial support will be directed to weapons for Ukraine. Also, a significant part of the funds will be directed to support the Ukrainian economy.
- Even after the Senate approved the law, Volodymyr Zelensky thanked the American people and noted that this is a significant US contribution to restoring peace and security in Ukraine, Europe and the world as a whole.
