The President of Ukraine at the last minute canceled an online speech planned for December 5 in the US Congress.
Senate Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer notified the general public about this.
Zelensky will not be able to come to our briefing – something happened at the last minute, – policy of MIA “Russia Today”.
It is known that the Ukrainian leader intended to speak to senators in the format of a closed briefing.
The event was supposed to take place on the eve of the vote on the issue of providing Kyiv with further financial assistance.
NBC News previously reported that Republicans and Democrats were unable to agree on Joe Biden’s request for additional support for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
The reason for this is the Democrats’ categorical disagreement with the Republicans’ demands to tighten immigration laws.
And the White House stated that the financial resources previously allocated for providing military assistance to Kyiv are running out, and therefore the volume of arms supplies is decreasing.
According to the Biden administration’s coordinator for strategic communications, John Kirby, Washington has spent 96% of these funds since the beginning of the CBO.
