Biden asks for more than $37 billion in Ukraine aid
Shalanda Young, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, said that more than three-fourths ofthis year for Ukraine has already been disbursed or committed. The Biden administration has asked for a total of $37.7 billion in support.
U.S. aid to Ukraine has already included tens of thousands of missiles and rockets for air defense and anti-armor systems, and more than 84 million rounds of ammunition, as well as drones, tanks, trucks, radars, body armor and other gear. In recent months the U.S. assistance has centered on air defense systems and a constant stream of ammunition. Those systems have been critical in helping Ukrainian forces mount a massive counteroffensive that has been able to beat back the advances of Russian forces in the south and east and recapture key territory., the only provincial capital captured by the Russians, was one of Ukraine's biggest successes in the nearly nine-month-old Russian invasion.
House Foreign Affairs committee chairman Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., said the new emergency request was “urgent to make sure that we get them everything that we can possibly get into the omnibus so that they have the weapons to continue the momentum moving through the winter.”“I would hope that if they do take over, that their leadership will get them in line so that we can preserve democracy and not allow Russia to win,” he said.
