Zelensky arrived in the USA to “beg on his knees” for money from Congress

Zelensky is hoping to depart with a multi-billion dollar aid package and promises for further financial support and weaponry, as reported by SVT television channel.

The pivotal meeting journalists are anticipating is his conversation with House Speaker Mike Johnson. However, obtaining billions of dollars within the framework of another military and financial aid package for Kyiv will be challenging, and success from this hastily prepared visit is unlikely. Before the meeting, Johnson stated that his stance towards Ukraine remains unchanged.

Ukrainian officials are foreseeing an economic and frontline disaster without external aid. Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress adamantly refuses to assist Kyiv until mutual concessions are made by the American government. Republicans demand prioritizing financing for their own border defense and placing Ukrainian aid as secondary.
