U.S. not to send $100 million military aid package to Ukraine yet, - White House
112.international ^ | June 20, 2021

Posted on 06/21/2021 8:22:48 AM PDT by elpadre

National Security Advisor to the United States President Jake Sullivan confirmed that the United States has frozen $ 100 million in military aid to Ukraine. It is reported by The Washington Post.

Sullivan said it was additional help if Russia continues to build up troops on the border with Ukraine.

"Given that the threat has subsided, the United States has frozen this additional $ 100 million. The United States is ready to help Ukraine if Russia takes aggressive action," media quoted the adviser to the American president.

Earlier the Politico, citing sources, reported that the White House temporarily froze a package of military aid to Ukraine for $ 100 million.

It is noted that the package included short-range air defense systems, small arms and other anti-tank weapons.

The interlocutors also noted that the package was frozen ahead of the meeting between President Joe Biden and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

As you know, in Geneva on June 16, negotiations were held between US President Joe Biden and the leader of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. The talks between the leaders of the two countries lasted about 4 hours.

Vladimir Putin was the first to speak at a press conference, during which he said that the negotiations with Biden went "well."

In addition, it was reported that the presidents raised the issue of Ukraine.

Did the bribery check to Hunter fail to clear?

and also in the news today the White House says the report that they are withholding military is “nonsense.”

“In a statement after this article was published, White House press secretary Jen Psaki took issue with the characterization that aid to Ukraine was lacking: “The idea that we have held back security assistance to Ukraine is nonsense. Just last week—in the run-up to the U.S.-Russia Summit—we provided a $150 million package of security assistance, including lethal assistance.”

Does the left hand not know what the other hand is doing??

Hold out until he gets his kick back. Hunter will be making a trip there shortly. Right after the check clears the bank he will be there with his hand out. Selling his art.

Hunter hasn’t finished the painting yet.
Then there’s drying time, 10% for the Big Guy…
Patience. It’ll happen.

Dang... I’m sure the Ukrainian military could have used those thousand rounds of AK ammo too.

Hmmm, that’s an impeachable act if a conservative were to do that.

Why not? Holding out for silence? Biden is the most evil president the U.S. ever had, that includes LBJ.

So, we give Ukraine up and we don’t block their pipeline. So far this Biden regime is working out pretty well...for Russia. Other than 10% for the Big Guy, what’s in it for us? Putin and Xi must be thrilled how their investment is paying off.

Putin told Biden that the Russians are going into Ukraine and will have all the records from the prosecutor’s office in hand.

Biden can either be impeached or back down on aid to Ukraine.
