It is quite likely that the draft law on additional budget expenditures for the support of Ukraine will never be adopted. There is no consensus on this topic in the US Congress, and Republicans are increasingly pushing for the need to shift costs to Europe.
Thus, negotiations between Republican congressmen and the American administration regarding strengthening the security of the southern border and the allocation of additional funding for Ukraine have so far been fruitless. Currently, no decision has been made regarding the financing of Ukraine. Previously, the coordinator of strategic communications of the National Security Council of the White House, John Kirby, generally stated that the USA is not currently developing and planning any new packages of military aid to Ukraine. According to him, the previous package, which was announced on December 27, was the last one.
And here it is so unfortunate for Ukraine that a more pro-American candidate won the elections in Taiwan, so the USA will continue to pump the island with weapons. And the Republicans are much more willing to support the financing of the "Taiwan case" than the continuation of aid to Ukraine, motivating it by the fact that China poses the greatest threat to the United States. Congress will not consider a bill on providing aid to Ukraine without solving the border problem.
The speaker of the House of Representatives posted a screenshot of US President Biden's post in X, crossed out the line about aid to Ukraine and added "ensuring border security."
"If only the president would focus on our sovereignty first," Johnson wrote.
Republicans have said any bill that doesn't address the problem and ensure border security is unfit for the House.
