The Senate Majority Leader expressed confidence that the bill would be approved on Thursday.

The U.S. Senate postponed a vote on providing a record $ 39.8 billion in financial aid to Ukraine. On Wednesday, May 18, The Guardian wrote.

According to the publication, the senators planned to make a decision in Ukraine on May 18, but consideration of the relevant bill was postponed for a day.

As Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer told the newspaper, “most likely, the document will be supported on Thursday.”

The bill must be signed by US President Joe Biden.

Recall, on May 12, Republican Senator Rand Paul from Kentucky single-handedly blocked a bill allocating record financial aid to Ukraine.

However, five days later, the U.S. Senate, following the results of a procedural vote, supported the document by a majority of votes.
