Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on the House of Representatives to vote to give more aid to the embattled country, after the Senate passed a $95 billion foreign aid bill that included $60 billion for Ukraine earlier on Tuesday.
“I am grateful to every U.S. Senator who made a morally strong choice today. Such a choice matters right now, not just for Ukraine but for every nation whose independence is a target for Russian strikes, current and planned, including those planned for the coming years,” Zelenskyy said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“The next step is a vote in the U.S. House of Representatives. We anticipate an equally strong moral choice and a decision that will work for the benefit of our shared security,” he added.
McConnell called on House Speaker Mike Johnson to allow a vote on assistance for Ukraine — adding that he wouldn’t be “so presumptuous as to tell him how to do it.”
