Bigger speech: Biden wants to comment on aid to Ukraine

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Joe Biden, US President, speaks in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. Biden wants to give a major speech soon about Ukraine and support for the attacked country.

He will explain “why it is crucial for the United States and our allies that we keep our promise,” Biden said on the sidelines of an appointment in Washington on Wednesday. Asked whether he was concerned that the US would soon no longer be able to provide the promised aid, the US president replied: “That doesn’t worry me. “I know that the majority of members of the House and Senate and both parties support financial assistance to Ukraine.”

Biden provided no further information about the speech. The White House also provided no details. White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said only that the US cannot withdraw from its commitment. Biden wants this to be made very clear.

When asked how long the US could support Ukraine, Biden spoke of a “next tranche” and then said there was “another way” to secure the financing. But I won’t go into that now.’ Asked whether he had promised ATACMS missiles to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during his visit to Washington, he responded evasively: he had spoken to Zelensky and everything he had asked for had been agreed.

The interim budget passed by the US Congress this weekend does not provide further aid for Ukraine. This does not mean that the US will no longer support Kiev from now on. However, the money approved so far is running out. During a call with NATO allies and partners on Tuesday, Biden sought to allay concerns that U.S. military aid to Ukraine could dry up. (SDA)
