This amount will be enough “to ensure that Ukraine can last until the end of the year,” according to Congress.

On Thursday, October 20, NBC News reports.
“This amount will be enough for Ukraine to survive next year,” said a Republican senator with knowledge of the matter.

Earlier, the Republican leader in the House of Representatives, Kevin McCarthy, warned that his party members “do not intend to support permanent funding for Ukraine’s needs related to the war against Russia. “
In that regard, both Democrat and Republican representatives are considering passing a government funding bill after the midterm congressional elections to provide higher levels of military and other aid than previous aid packages for in Ukraine.
Congress has given Ukraine a total of $65 billion since the Russian invasion began.
It will be remembered that after the massive strike by Russian troops on the infrastructure of Ukraine, the United States created a working group to restore it.
