US President Joe Biden is actively involved in negotiations with senators regarding changes to the immigration system that Republicans are demanding in exchange for providing money to Ukraine for its fight against Russia and Israel for the war against Hamas.

The Democratic president said he is willing to make “significant compromises on the border” while Republicans block military aid in Congress.
It’s time to reach an agreement that both sides can agree to, White House Budget Director Shalanda Young said Sunday on CBS’ Face the Nation.
Senators call on opponents to cooperate in resolving the issue of aid to Ukraine and Israel and immigration reform, Voice of America reports.
Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy blamed Republicans for the slow progress of aid negotiations for Ukraine and Israel, noting the fragile situation facing a world without an agreement.
It’s absolutely tragic that Republicans are tying the solution to perhaps the toughest issue in American politics—immigration—to supporting Ukraine and Israel,” Murphy said in an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
However, Republican Senator Mitt Romney said on Sunday that both political parties are taking a “hard line” in negotiations on assistance to Ukraine and Israel. In an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” on Sunday, Romney said one of the bill’s main shortcomings is the issue of border security.
It’s not just Republicans who are taking a hardline stance. These are Democrats who take a hard line. Either side can move and can do it,” Romney said.
Biden invited Vladimir Zelensky to the White House on December 12.
Let us remind you that according to a poll by The Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump is ahead of Biden in the presidential rating. Support for the current US president has fallen to its lowest level ever – 43%. Trump is supported by 47% of voters.
Last week, Biden said he would seek a second term out of fear of a Trump victory. The US presidential election is scheduled for November 5, 2024.
