Biden is sending aid to help Ukraine keep fighting next year, Blinken says

The Biden administration is determined in its final months to help ensure that Ukraine can keep fighting off Russia's full-scale invasion next year, sending it as much aid as possible so that it might hold Russian forces at bay and possess a strong hand in any potential peace negotiations, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday.

“President Biden has committed to making sure that every dollar we have at our disposal will be pushed out the door between now and Jan. 20,” when president-elect Donald Trump is due to be sworn in, Blinken said.

NATO countries must focus their efforts on “ensuring that Ukraine has the money, munitions and mobilized forces to fight effectively in 2025, or to be able to negotiate a peace from a position of strength,” Blinken said during a visit to Brussels.

The almost three-year war has shown no signs of winding down.

“..can keep fighting off Russia’s FULL-SCALE INVASION.

There’s that media dog-whistle again. Thanks for posting, but I’ve read enough of this article already.

Just one more addendum, following the election: Biden will throw the kitchen sink at Ukraine in the next two months. He can't have Ukraine collapse before January 20th. If Ukraine falls on January 21st, then Dems can blame it on Trump.

We don't have any.
We are in debt to the tune of $36 Trillion.

Nobody cares about Ukraine anymore. They don’t care if it falls.

And Blinken’s “peace negotiations” are nowhere to be found. Not even the “potential” ones.

“Nobody cares about Ukraine anymore. They don’t care if it falls.”

After Zelensky interfered in our elections I say “Fare thee well, Ukraine. Fare thee well.”

Biden is sending aid to help Ukraine

Biden doesn't even know if he cr@pped his pants, much less making decisions about the Ukraine.

Biden should be more worried about the full-scale invasion of his adult diaper by the contents of his alimentary canal.

"Jill, do farts have lumps?"

As far as news and the concerns of the American people, Ukraine is so yesterday. The election proved that few pay attention to the lying whores of the media. If Ukraine fell tomorrow the only ones caring would be a hand full of Zeeper types and the mad left.

Americans want America great again.

The only thing I feel bad about are all the good people of the Ukraine war that died so a bunch of lefterly politicians could get rich.

Most people never gave it more than a passing thought. Until they saw how much of our tax dollars were going there and not to our vets and the people hit by hurricanes.

They no longer spend tax dollars. They just print something and call it money.

Fair point. Makes a good case to eliminate the income tax. When that is done, then cut them off.
