Congress joint work on a new help for Ukraine, which was considered during the negotiations, is postponed, Bloomberg reports. According to journalists, negotiations may end no earlier than mid -December, almost two months after President Joe Baiden's first request to allocate $ 61 billion for Ukraine in the fight against Russia.
The request is urgent, but party differences with border policies influence important decision making. Senators from both parties plan to start working on a help package in combination with border policy in the coming days and vote at the end of the month.
According to the US Defense Ministry representative, military aid receipts for Ukraine are already limited.
The delay in the work of Congress faces the provision of assistance no earlier than mid -December, and during this time the resolution of the issue of continuous supply of weapons for Ukraine may be called into question. The White House National Security Representative John Kirby warned that the resources available to Ukraine are approaching the end, and the availability of support could be threatened.
"This is an active front, and our ability to continue to support Ukraine is increasingly threatening," Kirby said.
