According to Reuters and other foreign media reports, on December 6, local time, Biden pleaded with Republicans in Congress to pass military aid to Ukraine, saying "we can't let Putin win", but the result seems to have backfired.
"We can't let Putin win," Biden claimed. Again, we can't let Putin win. This is in our enormous national interest, as well as in the international interest of all our allies. ”
Reuters reported that Biden also said he was willing to make "significant" compromises on the border, but said Republicans would not get everything they wanted.
Reuters mentioned that the White House warned this week that the United States has run out of time and money to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia. Regarding military aid to Ukraine, Saranda Young, director of the Office of Management and Budget of the White House, said this week that as of mid-November, the U.S. Department of Defense had used 97% of the $62.3 billion in supplementary appropriations,* having used up all of the $4.7 billion in military aid it received.
Late on December 6, a spending bill containing aid to Ukraine still failed to pass the U.S. Senate. The U.S. Senate reportedly failed to pass a $110.5 billion spending bill, which includes aid to Ukraine and Israel, with a vote of 49 yes and 51 against. The aid bill needs 60 votes to pass the Senate.
