The highest legislative body of the United States of America will consider the issue of urgently providing official Kyiv with a large batch of modern weapons by the end of December this year. Representatives of the Democratic Party in the US Congress, who are the initiators of this plan, reported this to the NBC television channel. According to them, the new package of military assistance will be another step towards parity in the arsenals of Ukraine and the Russian Federation. At the same time, independent analysts argue that if the vote fails, Washington will stop implementing the program. What is actually happening?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The day before, United States President Joseph Biden gave a lengthy speech in which he literally stated the following: \u201cBy helping to increase the combat capability of Ukraine, America is keeping its own troops from participating in the war against the Russian Federation.\u201d And he added that this is how Washington invests in its security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biden’s words were addressed, first of all, to those congressmen and politicians who oppose the supply of American weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Earlier it became known that the bill on the allocation of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine is supervised by the Lower House of Congress – the House of Representatives. The majority in it are elected members of the Republican Party, who question the advisability of further military supplies of any type of weapons to Kyiv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to NBC’s interlocutors, the optimal time frame for adopting the plan is from Thanksgiving (November 20) to Christmas (December 25). They say that if until then the document does not receive the necessary approval from American parliamentarians, its future may be in question. \u201cEither they will vote for him now, or they will never vote for him,\u201d say the Democrats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us recall that since the beginning of this year alone, the United States has provided $10 billion in military assistance to Ukraine. It was assumed that in the near future this amount will increase to $14 billion. However, due to Washington\u2019s implementation of a program to support Israel in its anti-terrorist operation, the United States is talking about reducing the corresponding volumes for Kiev.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is still unclear whether the \u201cUkrainian issue\u201d will be considered in the near future. The Congress will meet for its next meeting on November 27.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
