US help for Ukraine ‘coming to an end’ unless Congress approves extra funding, Joe Biden warns | World News<\/p>\n

Joe Biden has warned the US is “rapidly coming to an end” of its ability to help Ukraine – unless Congress approves more military funding for the country.<\/p>\n

The Democrat US president made the comments amid a row with some Republicans who want to tie additional support for Kyiv with funding for tougher security measures at the US-Mexico border.<\/p>\n

President Biden issued the warning at a White House press conference on Tuesday alongside Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who has travelled to Washington DC in a bid to shore up support for fresh funding<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The US has already provided more than $111bn (\u00a388bn) to Ukraine<\/strong> since Russia launched its invasion of the country more than 21 months ago, but current support is due to run out within weeks.<\/p>\n

President Biden<\/strong> said the US would continue to back Kyiv “as long as we can” as he announced an additional $200m (\u00a3160m) package of support on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

He added: “But without supplemental funding, we’re rapidly coming to an end of our ability to help Ukraine respond to the urgent operational demands that it has…<\/p>\n

“[Russian President Vladimir] Putin is banking on the United States failing to deliver for Ukraine. We must prove him wrong.”<\/p>\n

However, the US president expressed optimism that a proposed new billion-dollar funding package, which would also include extra funding for Israel<\/strong>, was likely to be approved.<\/p>\n

He told reporters there was still “strong bipartisan support for Ukraine” and said it was only a small minority of Republicans who were opposed, adding: “I think we can get there.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, President Zelenskyy avoided getting involved in the political row as he praised the “full-fledged support” he had received from “both Democrats and Republicans” during his trip.<\/p>\n

He also declined to answer when asked if Donald Trump<\/strong> returning to the White House in the next election would threaten the independence of his country.<\/p>\n

Mr Zelenskyy added: “As we approach Christmas… Ukraine’s greatest wish is to near this war’s victorious end.<\/p>\n

“We dream of a Christmas in peacetime. We are heading there together with you and thank you for your support.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
