US House to vote on long-delayed Ukraine, Israel aid ā¢ FRANCE 24 English
gent it’s a strategic way of pushing a
divisive and long delayed Aid Bill
through the US House house Speaker Mike
Johnson plans to pass a long stall Aid
package to Ukraine and other us allies
through four separate votes this
proposed legislative package was delayed
for weeks as Johnson pondered on how to
advance aid for Ukraine and other allies
while fending off opposition from
Republicans opposed to backing KF we
will vote on the Israel Aid uh on the U
Aid to Ukraine on the aid to the Indo
Pacific and then another measure that
has our national security priorities uh
included and every member ultimately
will be able to uh vote their own
conscience on all of these matters and
everyone have an opportunity to weigh in
and bring the Amendments that they think
are suitable the bill dedicated to aid
for Ukraine would mirror the $95 billion
legislation passed by the Senate two
months ago Johnson emphasized that some
of the money could go towards
manufacturing Munitions in the US to
replenish US military stocks
will also Advance separate votes on Aid
to Israel Taiwan and measures dear to
Republicans including the seizing of
Russian assets impose sanctions on Iran
and a bill that could ban Tik Tock in
the United States but Johnson’s gamble
is already facing stiff opposition by
many republican lawmakers who oppose
sending billions of dollars overseas I
am firmly against the plan as it stands
right now now he’s telling America and
telling Republican voters that he’s
going to put put Ukraine money first $60
billion supposedly broken down to make
it more appealing somehow um of a
funding for Taiwan funding for Israel
and then some sort of National Security
package that includes the Tik Tock ban a
vote ending the deadlock looks uncertain
and may need support from Democrats to
pass the house and the Senate if the
bill does go through it would be a
relief for Ukrainian leaders who have
been warning about the lack of Munitions
and weapons on the front lines amid A
Renewed Russian offensive

Aid? What about the victims of Lahaina Fire in Hawaii? Have you given enough to your own country to rehabilitate them?
Approve it before russia china and iran take over the world. Yes america might get left alone but with no europe what will america be. Russi china iran will control you then
Inhumain Repulican Politician are causeing thousands of Ukrainian lives. Disgraceful
The United States supplies mainly Ukraine with weapons, which must be replaced with more modern ones. And the money allocated by Congress for Ukraine mostly remains in the United States and goes towards the production of more modern weapons.
The United States must periodically produce more modern weapons, otherwise they may become a victim of aggression because the United States has dangerous enemies – China, Russia, Iran, etc.
Trump and the Republicans are against assistance to Ukraine, Putin is happy.
Great news for the international fight against fascism – if it's correct. But one has to be carefull before concluding. Some republicans serve Moscow. And they do it openly.
wise use of american tax dollars, while domestic issues keep getting worse
House of republicans are pro Russians very clear
I don't trust Moscow Mike Johnson.
nope no aid for no one
No more money from the USA..Inflation is hurting use very bad..I can't buy food and medicine both..š¢š¢š¢
Please stop giving our biggest clowns a bigger circus. I'm talking of course about that pit bull from Georgia.
"Measure dear to Republicans including the seizing of Russian assets" Excuse me but its the GOP who is pro Russian not the Democrats, I highly doubt that most of Republicans would ever want to seize Russian assets or give Ukraine aid, the Republicans have been captured by Kremlin interests years ago.
no aid for israel if we really believe in democraty!
Do not believe Moscow Mike.
And what exactly changed comrade Johnson's mind all of a sudden?
Or is this just another trick?
So, whatās the point? You linked military aid to the border and delayed it for half a year, and now you want to separate it.
I object to everyone voting according to their own conscience on these issues. They are supposed to be voting in accordance with what the people want. They are to be servants of the people.
All this melodrama, now they shall send stuff not to easy the Ukrainian sufferings, but to hurt Russia
How about aiding your own citizens?
Till the last one š¢it will be sadly
Mike Johnson should be removed quickly like his predecessor
The bill for Ukraine should be first on the floor.
The only reason he's spliting the bills is so that he cab delay Ukraine aid indefinitely
Ukraine aid should go first otherwise Moscow Mike will delay it
Congratulation..
All military aid currently being sent to Israel should be sent to Ukraine instead.
Stop all military aid and arms sales to Israel now!
This is quite possibly a procedural tactic on Mr. Johnson's part. And a delaying tactic. In fairness he is trying to reconcile some irreconcilable positions. As an inexperienced leader, he might want to try assertive leadership. But that would invite the wrath of Trump in an election year.
In last 2 years more then 200 billion dollar aid to Ukraine by US didnāt work and now they think and all other western leaders that 60 billion will workā¦ šššš ā¦ nothing just a joke for themselves and clown š¤” zelensky
In 2019, Donald Trump tried to get the Ukrainian government to falsely implicate Joe Biden in a financial scandal. Their refusal to do so has resulted in Trump ordering his spinless cult disciples in congress to punish the women and children of Ukraine. The consequence is that these women and children remain defenseless against the terror attacks launched daily by Trump's close friend and confidant Vladimir Putin.
Everyone is crying the same song to get US taxpayers dollars. Ukraine- stop Russia or the whole West will be next, Israel – stop Iran or the entire Middle East will be next. Send us that unlimited money.
MTG doesn't even know what the bills are for. She can't even name them all. Jeeeesus. Please, let's all donate to her opponent on the next election. Forever, really.
Stupidity or craziness? Spending trillions of money on bloodshed and killing but using hundreds of millions of dollars to bring people to negotiating table becomes a problem?
The USA are currently losing the war against Russia, was not to be expected otherwise.
