The United States has approximately $1 billion left to ensure its own security. The United States may soon have to choose between its own defense and helping other countries.
This was stated by White House Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young in an interview with foreign journalists. Because of the $1 billion financial cap, she said, it all comes down to a political decision.
— Are we risking our own US preparedness because the world has become more complex? Or will Congress ensure that we can protect national security while supporting allies like Ukraine? It doesn't have to be either/or, Congress has to do what he did several times, — she states.
The director of the White House Office and Budget argues that the United States must finance its own national security, and then make sure that it can support American allies.

At the same time, she noted that most of the money to help Ukraine will remain in the United States. The funds will go to the American defense industrial base, which should increase weapons production. This will help create new jobs in the US.
Providing assistance to Ukraine also helps ensure US national security, Young emphasized. She believes there could be a larger conflict if Vladimir Putin takes over Ukraine and other dictators take notice.
