The White House is pushing to send billions in security aid to Ukraine before President Biden leaves office in January, aiming to strengthen Ukraine’s position ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. Trump has been critical of Biden’s Ukraine support, raising concerns about future U.S. backing under a Republican-led government. As of April, the Republican-controlled House approved a weapons transfer authority, leaving $9 billion in military aid for Ukraine, including munitions and anti-tank weapons. However, uncertainty surrounds future assistance as Ukraine faces setbacks and the GOP may restrict aid in the coming months. Trump has suggested a swift resolution to the conflict, including potential territorial concessions from Ukraine.
