Under the International Monetary Fund, there is a tool called Special Drawing Rights that was designed by the U.S. and our partners to provide emergency relief to nations experiencing crises. Due to the effectiveness of this reserve asset in helping those who need it the most, it is no surprise that Ukraine has already used the SDRs the country received last year. That’s why Ukrainian officials have asked the United States and other democracies to help them access additional Special Drawing Rights.
The United States has a surplus of these IMF reserve assets. We should send them to Ukraine. By making this commitment, we can help Ukrainians facing homelessness, food shortages, and lack of medicine, and we can fund access to basic healthcare.
Our surplus of SDRs positions the United States to help address the humanitarian crisis that is going to grow until Russia is expelled from Ukraine... if the United States directly recycles its surplus of SDRs to our allies, no country would have access to this relief except the one we specifically designated as a recipient.
The sooner we send this relief, the more we will be able to help.

Zelensky still wanting more of more.
Anything IMF to me is suspicious.
'Surplus' and 'Reserve' smacks of a loan, never to be paid back, but to pay interest on forever.
Remember, Federal Reserve is neither federal, nor is it 'Reserve'.
Anything going to Ukraine needs to be looked at as a “free- bee”.....Ukraines going to continue being a debt ridden nation no matter the outcome of this conflict.
Impossible Mission Force?
Sounds like Zelensky intends to milk the US dry.
I suppose one could say the same for Russia, China, the globalists, etc.
With the help of their puppets, the Democrats and their media apparatus
After sending $350 million in arms to Ukraine in late February, the Biden administration approved an additional $13.6 billion aid package in March, including $6.5 billion in military support... an now additional $800 million in military assistance to Ukraine on Wednesday.
This doesn’t count all the armament sent prior to Russia going into Ukraine.
It sure sounds like we’re funding and providing everything in this war - and just wait until they start asking about rebuilding their country.
Yet a few billion was too much for a border wall with Mexico
I posted this because I really wondered who would actually think we should tap into our Crisis Funds for Ukraine after the billions of dollars and armamnets we’ve already suited them with - not to mention they already used up our last years ‘donation’ out of the fund.
So this is all bidens fault and he will use the Ukraine to milk more dollars out of the USA? He learned from hilary and her Haiti funding on how to do this effectively.
We are over 39 trillion in debt. And this assclown thinks we have a pile if unused money around. And of course, let’s moneybomb the most corrupt nation, the DC nomenklatura ATM with cash.
No matter who wins Ukraine, America loses.
