Ukraine President Zelensky In Washington In Last-Ditch Plea For War Funding

 

Daily Mail: Zelensky's last-ditch plea to save $44B US aid package: Ukrainian president prepares to meet Biden and speak to Congress as Republicans and more Americans grow more skeptical about giving more money to Kyiv 

* Pew Poll found only 31% of Americans say US spending too much on Ukraine 

* Same poll found 48% of Republicans said there was too much spending 

* Zelensky has meetings on Capitol Hill and White House on Tuesday 

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will make a last-minute plea to Congress on Tuesday for a weapons package to continue his fight against Russia as nearly half of Americans say the U.S. has already spent too much on the war-torn nation. 

His in-person visit, the third since the war began, will be his most crucial and is a sign of how dire the White House believes the situation: both to get Zelensky his funding and how critical that money is to hold off Russian forces. 

But a Financial Times-Michigan Ross poll found that 48% of voters said the U.S. was spending 'too much' on sending financial and military aid to Ukraine. And a Pew Poll found only 31% of Americans say the same but - when broke down further - 48% of Republicans said there was too much spending on Kyiv.

Fuck Zelensky and his murdering of Ukraines youth and adult men in order to lick the boots of England and US deep-state warmongers. If there was justice in the world he would be hung as a war criminal.
