The request of incumbent US President Joe Biden for 24bn dollars for Ukraine is inappropriate. This was stated by the speaker of the US House of Representatives, Mike Johnson.
“It’s not Biden’s place to make that decision. We have a new president-elect, we will wait and follow the direction that the new commander-in-chief indicates. So I don’t expect that there will be new funding for Ukraine now,” Mike Johnson said.
According to the speaker, the House of Representatives, which has been working for the past month, “has no plans” to consider Biden’s request for $24bn to help Ukraine and replenish the Pentagon’s weapons stockpile.
We will remind, earlier Senator from the state of Ohio James David Vance said that the financing of Kiev is not in the interests of the United States.
