WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Friday that Volodymyr Zelensky told him Ukraine would lose the conflict with Russia without US military assistance.
"President Zelensky told me and our delegation that Ukraine will lose the war with dire consequences for the Ukrainian people, the US, and democracy & freedom without this vital aid," Schumer wrote on X.
House Speaker Mike Johnson and the House must pass the Senate's national security bill as soon as possible, Schumer added.
Schumer is on a visit to Ukraine marking the second anniversary of Russia's special operation. The congressional delegation, which also includes senators Jack Reed, Michael Bennet, Richard Blumenthal, and Maggie Hassan, met with Zelensky.
The visit comes after the US Senate passed a $95 billion supplemental funding bill with $60 billion in additional Ukraine aid and $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel, but no border security measures. House Speaker Mike Johnson said that the lower chamber has no plans to consider the current legislation after the Senate failed to propose "adequate" border security provisions.

so it’s only about Money ?
“Schumer Says Zelensky Told Him Ukraine Will Lose to Russia Without US Aid”
He’ll just be the latest in a string of TOTAL IDIOTS who actually trusted the Neocons.
Ukraine will lose with the Money as well.
There’s always Europe.
America will lose the war without a border. Fix it
“Cough up your kids’ money (borrowed from China for now) or our latest $**thole proxy will lose.”
Okay, just lose then.
Time to draw a line like they did in Korea and stop this.
Real man of genius, that Z. The US is out of things to send, except money which can be diverted into pockets for the eventual bugout.
Tell Schumer to put HR2 up for a vote. America comes first.
Come to the peace table then.
America’s border is open
I wonder how much money Chuck Schumer gets as a kick back
Ukraine will never win a war of attrition against Russia. That is all the Russians have ever fought and have no problem sacrificing their people for the win.
It’s not our war.
It cant happen soon enough.
Either way they will lose. Just a matter of when. I say after our election. Biden can’t afford another Afghanistan.
Yeah but defense contractors, Ukrainian pensions, slush accounts and mortgages on European villas keep getting financed.
Anybody who depends on US aid to win a war is a fool.
