Biden blames Congress for Ukrainian withdrawal in Avdiivka
The president of United States, Joe Bidenhas had a telephone conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, to whom he assured that the culpa of the withdrawal of the Ukrainian Army from the city of Avdiivka is due to the inaction of the Congress of his country.
The North American president has emphasized “the need for Congress to urgently approve the bill for supplemental national security funding to resupply Ukrainian forces.”
The United States Senate has approved, after long delays, help plans for Ukraine worth around $60 billion (about 55,000 million euros). Now it remains for the House of Representatives to approve it, but its president, Republican Mike Johnson, has already announced that he is not going to present the bill.
There would still be another solution, a complicated and rarely used process known as a discharge petition, which would force the legislation to reach the full House.
Finally, Biden wanted to reaffirm “the strong bipartisan support in the United States Government and among the American people for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and to impose costs to the Russian government to hold him accountable for his actions.
