Zelensky: Ukraine must 'fight' for $16 billion in suspended US aid

unian.net (Russian) —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine has not received $16 billion in US aid previously agreed upon, saying the country must "fight" for these funds. In an interview with TSN, Zelensky said Ukraine must work on the US aid package and raise the issue that $16 billion from prior agreements were suspended, while another $16 billion were never added. He expressed gratitude for received support but insisted Ukraine must advocate for the remaining money. The comments come amid shifting US political dynamics, including Jared Kushner's remarks on building a global security architecture and the defeat of at least six anti-Ukraine congressmen in the US midterm elections.
