Volodymyr Zelensky pleaded with US lawmakers to maintain military support for Ukraine on Thursday, as Republicans signalled that they would try to block a new funding package put forward by Joe Biden.
The Ukrainian president addressed senators in a private meeting on Capitol Hill, warning that his country would “lose the war” without US support, before meeting the US president in the White House.
His second visit to Washington since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion comes as Ukraine attempts to push through Russian defensive lines in the south and east as part of a major counteroffensive that Kyiv says requires more armaments from the West.
But despite Mr Zelensky’s pleas for more funding, a group of Republicans in the House of Representatives opposes further US involvement in the war and has signalled they will vote down a proposed $24 billion (about £19 billion) package of fresh military and humanitarian aid.

There never would have been a war without their “support.”
Israel has smartly stayed out of it.
They lost the war a long time ago.
It's an effective form of carbon reduction.
Rem8nds me if a junk bonds salesman. I heard the Clinton’s have been organizing recovery project%% in Ukraine, so I think it’s over now. The Clintons profit on disaster recovery. Accounting for money is difficult, therefore they become heavily involved.
That Z, he’s a regular genius!
More emotional blackmail, wanting to deliver the guilt, if anyone decides to accept that delivery.
Like WW2?
“This is all show.
The GloboHomoPedos in charge will continue to fund this until we a e pushed into WWIII.
They need war.”
Bingo
SPJNK.
Wow.. That’s great! Good news. I was hoping he would quit and make peace with Russia and stop killing Ukrainians.
The House, where all money bills must originate, is struggling
over a continuing resolution to keep OUR govt funded.
The $24.9 billion for Ukraine is not in any proposed CR......so far.
Yet Biden demands Ukraine be handed
<><> $13.1 billion tax dollars for military assistance;
<><>$8.5 billion for “humanitarian aid” (to finance Mrs Zelensky’s shopping trips to Paris);
<><> plus $2.3 billion to the World Bank for an idiotic scheme to pressure other donors.
No word on how much gets deposited offshore for
the Biden Crime Family and the corrupt Zelensky crew.
For beach bum Biden, America doesn’t come
first.......making sure we bend over does.
So look, if we haven’t given all our money to
Ukraine yet, hey, let’s give billions to the World Bank.
It isn’t like we need our money or anything, or that Biden
has like any constitutional obligation to our safety and security.
No.
Biden has a large crime family getting rich quick.......
b/c, to a corrupt politician, that’s what wars are for.
Define “lose”
Exactly!
Or the USA, for that matter.
I wonder how many rebuilding plans were drawn up before Nuland and co goaded this into being.
Seems that this way in Maui there were rebuilding plans drawn up before the fire.
I’m cynical enough to believe that this kind of idiocy is not just possible but probable.
Look like the vast majority of left of center Yahoo News readers are turning against endless funding of Ukraine also.
