— I don't think he wants to be drawn into conflict or pay for conflicts around the world, — the senator said.
One of the main confirmations of their position, the Republicans say, is Trump's choice of J.D. Vance as his ally. He was a staunch opponent of the allocation of a large batch of military aid to Ukraine in the amount of $61 billion.
In April, Vance really emphasized to The Hill that that large package would be the final one for Kiev from Washington.
— If Ukraine thinks that it will receive another $60 billion from the US Congress, then this is impossible, — he said then.
Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC), a vocal supporter of Ukraine's defense against invaders, said Trump should be approached about the issue because he is open to discussion.
— “We have to convince President Trump why it is in our best national interest to support Ukraine,” Tillis concluded.
