Funding for Ukraine’s war runs dry as Zelensky prepares to meet with President Biden | WION

Posted by

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet with US President Joe Biden in Washington as war funding for the country is drying up. The meeting comes at a critical time for Ukraine, as it continues to grapple with the ongoing conflict with Russia and the separatist forces in the eastern part of the country.

Zelensky’s visit to Washington is seen as an opportunity for the Ukrainian leader to seek assurances from the Biden administration about continued support for Ukraine in the face of increased Russian aggression. Ukraine has been seeking increased military aid from the US, as it continues to face challenges in its efforts to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The war in Ukraine has been ongoing since 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea and the conflict in eastern Ukraine began. Despite a ceasefire agreement, the situation on the ground remains volatile, with regular reports of ceasefire violations and casualties on both sides. The conflict has taken a heavy toll on Ukraine, both in terms of human lives and economic stability.

In recent months, Ukraine has also been facing a funding crisis, as international support for its military efforts has been drying up. The US has been a key supporter of Ukraine in its efforts to counter Russian aggression, providing both military aid and financial assistance. However, there are concerns that the Biden administration may be considering scaling back its support for Ukraine, as it seeks to focus on other priorities such as China and domestic matters.

The meeting between Zelensky and Biden is therefore seen as an important opportunity for Ukraine to make its case for continued support. Zelensky is expected to push for increased military aid and assistance, as well as to seek assurances about the US’ commitment to Ukraine’s security and territorial integrity.

The meeting also comes at a time of heightened tensions between Russia and the West, as the Biden administration seeks to confront Russian aggression and interference in global affairs. Ukraine has been at the forefront of these tensions, and the meeting between Zelensky and Biden is likely to be a key opportunity for the two leaders to reaffirm their commitment to countering Russian influence in the region.

Overall, the meeting between Zelensky and Biden is expected to be an important moment for Ukraine, as it seeks to secure continued support from the US in the face of ongoing conflict with Russia. The outcome of the meeting will be closely watched by observers, as it will likely have significant implications for the future of the conflict in Ukraine and the broader geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe.

In other words, Zelensky is making a final plea in Washington for his pocket money. I think he should start a GoFundMe after leaving Washington.
