Ukrainian Officials ‘Concerned’ About Republicans Plans to Stop Funding Ukraine’s Military

Dmytro Kuleba, the foreign minister of Ukraine, told Axios that recent threats by prominent American Republicans to slash aid to Ukraine if they take control of the House in next month’s midterm elections worry him.

From AXIOS:

Why it matters: Any U.S. cuts to Ukraine aid would deal a significant blow to Kyiv and could alter the course of the war.

Driving the news: House minority leader Kevin McCarthy signaled in an interview with Punchbowl News last week that Republicans are not going to "write a blank check" to Ukraine at a time of economic recession.

The Ukrainian foreign minister noted that Ukraine has historically received bipartisan support in the U.S. Congress. "And we will work with both Republicans and Democrats to make sure that the aid continues," he said.
