US President Joe Biden said that there are “a significant number of Democrats and Republicans” in Congress who will not agree with attempts to stop aid to Ukraine.

Direct speech: “I know there are a significant number of Democrats and Republicans on (Capitol – ed.) Hill who believe that we should continue to support Ukraine.
I hope and expect that they will speak out and disagree with the president (Donald Trump – ed.) if he decides to stop funding Ukraine.”
Details: Biden also stressed that Putin is now in “tough shape” due to the grueling war and economic pressure from the West.
In this connection, Biden pointed out the importance of not giving the Russian dictator the opportunity to rest and continue aggression.
Direct speech: “He (Putin – ed.) has economic problems, significant economic problems, as well as political problems inside the country.”
Details: Therefore, according to his own words, Biden is doing everything within his power and authority to provide Ukraine with advantages to support independence.
We will remind: Last spring, at a pre-election event, Donald Trump criticized the scale of support for Ukraine, at the same time twisting the facts, and declared that if he wins, he will immediately “solve the issue” with this.
Prehistory:
- Representatives of US President-elect Donald Trump in conversations with European partners admit that they will not be able to quickly end the war in Ukraine, but promise to continue supporting the country.
- The day before, Trump’s chosen special representative for Ukraine and Russia, Keith Kellogg, said that he aims to try to find a solution to the current full-scale war within 100 days of the inauguration of the new president.
- Earlier, Keith Kellogg stated that he was preparing visits to listen to the position of the parties to a full-scale war. It was also reported that he was supposed to come to Kyiv in January, but the visit was postponed.
- Donald Trump previously assured that he “will not leave Ukraine” in his attempts to settle the Russian-Ukrainian war.
