Peace formula summit
Recently, the third meeting of advisors on national security and foreign policy regarding the peace formula took place. Among the issues discussed were:
- Nuclear and radiation safety;

- Uninterrupted food supply;

U.S. Support for Ukraine
The United States is one of the main allies of Ukraine in resisting Russian aggression. Since the beginning of the war, the United States has supported Ukraine with both military and financial assistance.
Recently, the Pentagon announced that there is still over $5.4 billion allocated for military aid to Ukraine.
In October, Joe Biden proposed providing assistance of $106 billion to both Ukraine and Israel. The new Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, urged lawmakers to vote separately for assistance to Tel Aviv, but Democrats blocked this attempt.
