Biden tells allies Ukraine support will continue after Republicans block funding

"President Biden made clear we cannot, under any circumstances, allow America's support for Ukraine to be interrupted," White House national security spokesperson John Kirby Putin believe that he can now wait us out and that he can continue the conflict until we and our allies and partners fold," Kirby said. It will also hand Putin a win, he said."If we just walk away from Ukraine, we basically confirm his lie.
Moscow says it had to invade Ukraine to protect its own security against what it casts as a hostile West that is bent on undermining Russia - a position that Kyiv and its Western supporters reject as absurd. Its omission from the U.S. spending bill sent pro-Kyiv officials in Washington scrambling to find the best way to secure approval for further assistance on top of the $113 billion in security, economic and humanitarian aid the U.S. has provided since Russia invaded in February 2022.
