Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is expected on Capitol Hill and at the White House next week.
In his speech to cheering lawmakers, Zelenskyy thanked Americans for helping to fund the war effort and said that the money is “not charity,” but an “investment” in global security and democracy.
The White House National Security Council declined to comment on Zelenskyy’s plans, including whether he would meet with Biden at the White House. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the U.S. was"continuing our relentless work to target Russia’s military supply chains and deprive Putin of the equipment, technology, and services he needs to wage his barbaric war on Ukraine."
But conservative Republican lawmakers have been pushing for broad federal spending cuts and some of those allied with Donald Trump, the former president, are specifically looking to stop money to Ukraine.
