The split among Republicans threatens support for Ukraine – The Washington Post

In the Republican Party of the United States, as in the rest of the country, there is a debate about the need for continued aid to Ukraine. Recently, the number of its opponents has only grown. The Washington Post writes about it.

A recent CNN poll showed that 55% of Americans do not want continued aid to Kiev. Even in the Democratic Party, opponents of supporting Ukraine have emerged. Republican candidates are effectively using anti-Ukrainian sentiment in society and are actively gaining popularity.

The publication writes that the request of American President Joe Biden for an additional $ 24 billion in aid to Ukraine was a blow to the Republican Party, which joined former President Donald Trump. Trump is convinced that Ukraine is not worth that much money to fight Russia. Many Republicans also believe that the money could be better used to solve US domestic problems.

If a Republican is elected to the presidency, Kiev may be left alone, the newspaper predicts. Recently, American voters have become increasingly concerned about domestic problems, in particular rising fuel prices.
