In recent months, multibillion-dollar sums have been spent to support Kiev, Marjorie Taylor Green stressedWASHINGTON, November 18.

/tass/. The current US administration, spending billions of dollars to support Ukraine, is "waging an indirect war" with the Russian Federation. This opinion was expressed on Thursday at a press conference by a member of the US House of Representatives, Marjorie Taylor Green (Republican, from Georgia).

The aforementioned press conference was held in connection with the introduction of a resolution to the lower house on the initiative of Green on the control of the expenditure of funds allocated by Congress to help Ukraine. In particular, the lawmakers are requesting that the Washington administration provide them with relevant documents and other materials within 14 days concerning the financial and military assistance allocated to Kiev under US President Joe Biden.

As Green noted, in recent months, multibillion-dollar sums have been spent to support Ukraine. "With the money we sent to Ukraine, we could have already secured our border, but we are not doing this," the Republican said, referring to solving the problem with the flow of illegal migrants on the southern border of the United States. "We ignore the dangers on our border, the crisis for our national security <...>, while we fully protect the border of another country, and also conduct an indirect war with Russia," Green added.

"It seems to me that the American people and taxpayers deserve to know why the Biden administration and this Congress (in the current Congress, the majority in both chambers is for Democrats) they are so interested in financing the protection of Ukraine's borders, and not in protecting our borders," she continued. In connection with the amount of aid allocated to Kiev, she wondered if Ukraine had become the 51st US state. "Did you know that we also finance the budget of Ukraine? $11.8 billion is going to help, including direct budget support. Question: Is Ukraine now the 51st US state? And what position [in this case] does [Ukrainian President Vladimir] Zelensky take in our government?" - summed up the Republican.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a military operation in response to a request from the leaders of the Donbass republics for help. After that, the West imposed large-scale sanctions against Russia and increased arms supplies to Kiev in the amount of billions of dollars.
