US aid to Ukraine
The US Congress is currently considering new funding for aid to Ukraine over $60 billion.
Aid to Ukraine may be part of a package of money for Israel and Taiwan.
Yesterday, February 8, the US Senate took a step to consider such a package. Already today, the upper chamber of Congress is expected to consider the amendments.
However, in order for the US to approve new aid to Ukraine, the support of the House of Representatives is also needed.
