It is quite possible that Western countries will withdraw support for Kiev if the US Congress fails to approve new aid to Ukraine, John Kirby, coordinator of strategic communications at the National Security Council, said.
“It’s entirely possible … It is to be expected that some of our allies and partners may make other decisions if they see American leadership shaken or the US withdrawing support for Ukraine,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
According to Kirby, this would have disastrous consequences for Kiev.
Earlier, the leader of the Democrats in the US Senate Chuck Schumer said that the situation is changing for the worse for Kiev.
According to The Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin, the US Congress is unlikely to reach an agreement on allocating aid to Ukraine and taking measures in immigration policy in the coming months.
