The United States Congress blocked 300 million dollars. About the protection of Ukraine.
The Committee of the House of Representatives of the United States approved the project of defense costs for 2026 financial year in the amount of $ 833 billion. Nevertheless, the congressmen did not support the inclusion of a distribution of $ 300 million. For military assistance to Ukraine. This was reported that he violated the defense.
The congressman made amending the defense of Ukraine from the Democratic Party of Marse Kapoor, but most of the members of the committee did not support its initiative. Financing in the United States should go to the purchase of missiles with high relapse, air defense systems and other critical weapons.
The Chairman of the Committee Tom Cole explained that the inclusion of this money may block the adoption of the entire budget
I say this as a person who constantly supports Ukraine. I wrote an account for the largest help package, and my opinion has not changed, but the policy is simply practical, ”he said.
It is noted that for the Republicans the key was the problem of unity in the vote: any conflicting amendments can provoke internal differences and delay the acceptance of the budget as a whole.
“Destruction of protection” writes that the inability of this amendment is in doubt about the stability of the future financing of the protection of Ukraine by the state.
We recall that recently the head of the Pentagon Pit Hegset said that the White House plans to reduce the budget for the help of safety in Ukraine in 2026. The US Department of Defense said that the Americans have provided more than $ 66 billion in Ukraine. Help after the invasion of Russia in February 2022.
