Polish leader says US Republican senators should be ashamed for scuttling Ukrainian aid
Updated 8:07 AM EST, February 8, 2024
WARSAW, Poland (AP) Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Thursday that U.S. Republican senators should be ashamed for leaving about $60 billion in wartime aid for Ukraine in limbo in a recent vote.
Poland borders Ukraine and has been pressing the U.S. and Europe for unwavering support for Kyivs struggle against Moscows aggression as security concerns mount in the region.
A vote in the U.S. Senate on Wednesday failed to back a $95 billion package for Ukraine, Israel and other U.S. allies due to Republican opposition.
Dear Republican Senators of America. Ronald Reagan, who helped millions of us to win back our freedom and independence, must be turning in his grave today. Shame on you, Tusk wrote on X, formerly called Twitter.
