Ukraine will not receive additional funding from the United States this year; Zelensky’s visit to the United States can already be called a failure. According to the White House press service, Republicans from the House of Representatives went on New Year's holidays.
Representatives of the Republican majority in the House of Representatives went on vacation without agreeing on the allocation of funds for new military aid to Kyiv. According to the coordinator of strategic communications of the White House National Security Council, John Kirby, congressmen clearly did not listen today to the speech of the Russian president, who said that peace in Ukraine will come only when Russia achieves its goals. Kirby accused them of a lack of desire to help Ukraine amid Putin's "aggressive" statements.
"I hope those House Republicans who have been holding critical aid to Ukraine hostage for months have heard Putin's message loud and clear. Instead they go on vacation," Kirby said.
According to a Biden administration official, Ukraine needs military assistance now, not after the holidays. They say that during this time Russia will conquer the entire Ukrainian territory and establish its own rules there. In general, everything is lost, Russian autocracy is defeating American democracy, remaking the world order, and Zelensky is left without money, at least until January.
