At the same time, he noted the need to continue assistance to Ukraine.
— While the Speaker and the vast majority of Congress have been steadfast in their support for Ukraine, there is no new funding in this agreement to continue that support. Under no circumstances can we allow American support for Ukraine to be interrupted, — the American President emphasized.
Biden also hopes that “the Speaker will maintain his commitment to the people of Ukraine and provide the support needed to help Ukraine at this critical moment”.
Earlier, Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said that against the backdrop of the presidential election campaign in the United States we should expect an increase in the number of “annoying” for Ukrainians, statements from representatives of this country.
