The Ukrainian government insisted Sunday it was not worried about U.S. support after a new package of aid to Kyiv was stripped out of the stopgap bill approved by Congress and signed by President Biden over the weekend to avoid a government shutdown.
The government of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said it took heart from the pledges of Mr. Biden and senior congressional leaders of both parties and both chambers that they will now turn to a separate funding package of aid to Kyiv.
Mr. Zelenskyy even traveled to Washington after last month’s U.N. General Assembly to lobby for more support and to try to assure skeptical lawmakers that the U.S. military aid provided so far was being well spent. The administration is seeking another $24 billion in support for Ukraine on top of the nearly $114 billion in military, economic and humanitarian aid already approved by Congress for Kyiv.
