WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden’s top budget official warned in stark terms Friday about the rapidly diminishing time that lawmakers have to replenish U.S. aid for Ukraine, as the fate of that money to Kyiv remains tied up in negotiations over immigration where a deal has so far been out of reach.
Shalanda Young, the director of the Office of Management and Budget, stressed that there is no avenue to help Ukraine aside from Congress approving additional funding to help Kyiv as it fends off Russia in a war that is now nearly two years old. While the Pentagon has some limited authority to help Kyiv absent new funding from Capitol Hill, “that is not going to get big tranches of equipment into Ukraine,” Young said Friday.
This is completely false. Also, Ukraine has been begging to join NATO since Russia invaded. Western Europe rightfully refused to allow their inclusion (because it’d start WW3) and told them it was tough luck that the Ukrainian Regime was foolish enough to believe the Brits and Americans. They should’ve gone along with the peace negotiations Russia offered in 2022 or just honored the Minks agreements.
It must be really hard to type while you’re gargling Putin cock. You’re lies constitute a deliberate spread of disinformation. Go piss up rope.
No.
Ukrainian polling has consistently shown that Ukraine did not want to join NATO before Russia invaded in 2014. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich gave a 25-year lease of Sevastopol to Russia in 2010 in order to give guarantees that Ukraine wouldn’t join NATO. US President Barack Obama constantly said Ukraine wouldn’t join NATO.
Nobody wanted Ukraine to join NATO up until the Russia invasion of 2014.
Heres a really good video by Sarcasmitron on YouTube talking about the history of Russia and NATO post-USSR.
