Biden to ask Congress to allocate another $13 billion to help Ukraine
However, U.S. residents have recently become less confident about the need to help Ukraine – AP
According to the Associated Press, which cites an informed source, U.S. President Joe Biden intends to ask Congress for a new $13 billion emergency aid package for Ukraine.
The AP reminds that the last time the White House addressed congressmen with a similar request was in November last year, and that request was fulfilled. At that time, the United States allocated more than $37 billion to support Ukraine.
However, as the agency notes, the political situation is now more complicated, as the Republican-controlled lower house of parliament is under increasing pressure to support party leader Donald Trump.
The latter has repeatedly expressed doubts about the need to allocate significant funds to Ukraine.
In addition, US residents have recently become less confident about the need to help Ukraine, AP reports.
Background. The day before, it was reported that the United States had prepared a new package of military aid to Ukraine worth $200 million.
