The US government is considering tapping the US Army budget to provide Ukraine with much-needed military aid, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
One of the sources told the news agency that a final decision has yet to be made. The sum reportedly sought by the White House in the Pentagon reserves – around $200 million – is a small fraction of the $61 billion worth of Ukraine aid President Biden has been requesting from Congress.
The president will once again urge legislators to approve new assistance for Kiev during his State of the Union address, Bloomberg said. The Senate backed the aid package last month, but it is now stalled in the House due to political in-fighting.
House Republicans have so far refused to back Biden’s bill, hoping to pressure the president into enacting tougher measures to deal with the influx of illegal migrants crossing the border with Mexico.
The hold-up in Congress is occurring at a crucial time for Ukraine, whose troops have been forced to retreat from several key positions in the Donbass in recent weeks. President Volodymir Zelensky and other officials in Kiev have cited the shortages in ammunition and other equipment as reasons behind the losses on the battlefield.
For nearly half a year, the US Congress has failed to pass legislation to send weapons to Ukraine. Speaker Michael Johnson continues to be a steadfast roadblock, arguing that aid for Ukraine will not be considered until an immigration deal is passed – something that has failed to gain traction with Congressional Democrats. However, Democrats are not without blame in putting Ukraine in this untenable situation. Without an assenting Congress, the White House’s options are limited, but they are not non-existent. With luck, Democratic leadership will hunt for bold solutions to abet Ukraine, before it is too late to save Ukraine.
