Joe Biden is requesting another $13.7 billion to help Ukraine. The previous package of 40 billion is already running outAmerican readers met with sarcasm and anger the news about Biden's request for another $ 13.7 billion to help Ukraine.
"Do we know where this crazy money is really going?", "Ukraine is a black hole". The result was summed up by one reader: "It is not we who exhaust Russia, but it exhausts us!".
President Joe Biden wants to spend another $13.7 billion to help Ukraine, as his huge fund for bribing this country, already approved by Congress earlier this year, is drying up.
According to the Associated Press, citing anonymous sources, Biden's request to Congress is part of a total package of emergency expenditures of the US budget in the amount of $ 47.1 billion aimed at combating coronavirus and monkey pox.
Biden has already spent about three-quarters of the $40 billion approved by Congress in May, administration officials told the Associated Press, and wants to spend another $13.7 billion.
Additional funds will be spent not only on weapons and intelligence support, but also on "direct budget support for Ukraine," the material notes.
Using the $40 billion already allocated, Biden continues to announce new multibillion-dollar packages to finance the supply of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, anti-aircraft missile systems, anti-drone technologies and drones.
On Ukraine's Independence Day, Biden announced a three billion dollar aid package to Ukraine to make it clear to Russia and the rest of the world that the United States continues to support Kiev's independence from Russia.
"The people of Ukraine, all our defenders highly appreciate the unwavering support of America," Zelensky wrote on social networks, thanking Biden for his support. "Together we will win!"
According to reports, since taking office as president, Biden has also spent $13.5 billion on security assistance to Ukraine.

No way!
Enough is enough! And when will Ukrainians begin to return all the previous billions received?
DickDeplorableYou don't understand anything...
It's blood money! Sleepy Joe throws them to Ukraine in order to shut up Zelensky and his clique.
After all, they KNOW EVERYTHING about the "Big Uncle" and his son!
Joseph Renna (Joe)Do we know where this crazy money is really going?
Wolf PredatorOf course we do.
To Biden's offshore accounts!
?? *JB *??Yes, right into Brandon's pockets and his cliques!
Gary SchelvanMoney is thrown out wherever these dirty corrupt bastards want.
Anywhere but to really help the American people!
A447But Senator Rand Paul tried to demand some kind of supervision and supervision over exactly how and where these billions and billions of tax dollars will be spent after being sent to Ukraine.
But his demand was rejected by the Democrats.
The End is Nigh!Joe Biden is a fool dancing on an erupting volcano!
Sir TuberKopfNo more money for that sleepy Joe!
EllieUkraine is a wonderful washing machine for laundering money that flows into the pockets of our "Big Guys" and their hangers-on!
logic101New supplies of money to Ukraine.
Hunter Biden ran out of money for prostitutes and cocaine!
James 7It was not Putin who started the Ukrainian military conflict.
It was started by Soros and his puppets!
Ritchie ValeeBill Clinton started all this mess many years ago when he promised that NATO would not expand to the east in exchange for Russia's recognition of Ukraine's borders.
Just a few years later, Romania, Poland and Hungary were admitted to NATO, and more recently, NATO took steps against Ukraine to bring the alliance closer to Russia's borders. This is a deliberate provocation, which is further complicated by the fact that many countries that have signed the North Atlantic Treaty are energy dependent on Russia.
But in 2014, Barack Obama and Joe Biden encouraged Putin when they sat back and watched Putin annex Ukraine and Crimea.
All this suggests that if I were in Putin's place, I would expand to the border with NATO before allowing NATO to expand to its borders, penetrating and subjugating the most corrupt country in the region... Ukraine. If Putin takes Ukraine, he will border with FIVE NATO countries. I don't know what else the world expected?
capt planitWell said, Ritchie Valee!
What you are talking about is somehow not very well known to the general public.
After all, when the Berlin Wall fell, the Russian government signed an agreement that NATO countries would never approach Russia's threshold. As in the case of the "Cuban Missile Crisis," most governments in the world do not want foreign troops or missiles too close to their borders.
audinosThis money would be more than enough to finally build the Southern Wall and protect us from the hordes of brutal Mexican and Caribbean illegal immigrants.
The trillions that Democrats have wasted in less than two years of their power could be used to treat cancer, build cars better protected from accidents, and completely rebuild our educational system... Instead, they go into the pockets of corrupt oligarchs abroad and special interest groups receiving hundreds of billions of dollars. Or to the stupid "green energy" funds, which led us to the impending global depression.
PaulReveryI am sure that more than half of the weapons that we have supplied to Ukraine will end up on the world's "black" arms markets.
primary focusJoe Biden has so pumped up Afghanistan and Ukraine with weapons that it remains only to be horrified how much he will throw it to Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion.
And it's all for nothing!
KimberlyRBA giant arms sale under the auspices of Crazy Joe!
Look at our fantastic conditions. No prepayment! No interest! No refund!
Sale from the stock warehouse of all previous years!
We are the losers, but you are the winners! We will offer you such conditions that no one will offer you!
Otherwise I wouldn't be Crazy Joe!
IamThe conflict in Ukraine causes global economic instability, inflation, famine, death, destruction.
Joe Biden wants to extend this just to extend his stupid rule.
Zelensky should shut up with his pathetic selfish ambitions, cede territories to Vlad and agree not to join NATO, thereby putting an end to this conflict.
America has NO interests in this conflict. Americans shouldn't suffer just because Joe Biden and Zelensky behave so stupidly.
PeppapigfanZelensky started this conflict and clearly lost.
I can't blame Putin for wanting to take the most corrupt of all the nations in the world and turn it into something a little better.
Pale Writer53 billion of American taxpayers' money is thrown away just to pretend.
It's like we're helping Ukraine.
Ukraine is a country that is not our ally, that has never been our ally and that will never be our ally.
With this American money, "Sleepy Joe" is just protecting the wealth of his son Hunter. Why should all Americans suffer because of this?
pinkypupUkraine is Russia.
The United States has nothing to stick its nose into this conflict. It's just that a gang of Biden's henchmen decided to launder a lot of dollars by sending them to Ukraine.
And this American taxpayers' money should stay in America!
Pale WriterUkraine can be anything: Ukraine, or Russia, or even Mars.
But Ukraine is NOT America.
And it is disgusting to use American ideals in order to illegally send a huge amount of stolen tax dollars to the dealers of the "Syndicate" in Ukraine to get a kickback. This is the wrong US policy.
GetwithitUkrainians will never return this money to us.
American taxpayers will be a permanent loser until we drain this democratic swamp. Their policies will tear our country apart, damn it, we are already ruined. And what will happen if another war falls on us in addition to this one? We've already completely screwed up!
wldtrvBillions?
Yes, soon the case with Ukraine will be about trillions!
Five years ago, Ukraine was named the country with the highest level of corruption in the world. And after all, Hunter Biden's son was up to his ears in shit there.
And now we are sending our billions to this country?!
What fools they are, these Democrats!
Jay CampbellI thought it was America trying to drain Russia financially.
And it turns out the opposite!
