US President Joe Biden stressed this Thursday, November 28, “the importance of supporting the Ukrainian people”, following the latest massive attacks launched by Russia in Ukraine.
This attack, carried out with numerous missiles and drones, “is scandalous and reminds us once again of the urgency and importance of supporting the Ukrainian people in their defense against Russian aggression,” denounced the outgoing president, a few weeks before his substitution by. Donald Trump in the White House.
Faced with the uncertainties caused by the election of Donald Trump, very critical of the billions of dollars released by the United States for Ukraine, Joe Biden took advantage of this new attack to claim his country’s support.
“On this day, my message to the Ukrainian people is clear: the United States is at your side,” he insisted, recalling the extent of the aid provided by his administration.
What will happen to Trump?
“Russia continues to underestimate the bravery, resilience and determination of the Ukrainian people,” he continued. “The United States stands with more than 50 countries that support Ukraine and its fight for freedom.”
Throughout his campaign, Donald Trump promised to resolve the conflict between kyiv and Moscow even before taking the oath of office in January, without ever explaining how. A promise that raises fears that the United States will cut off the tap on military aid to Ukraine.
On Wednesday, the Republican billionaire named former General Keith Kellogg as envoy to Ukraine and Russia. At 80 years old, this supporter of Donald Trump is known for having asked kyiv to make several concessions.
“Any future US military aid will require Ukraine to engage in peace talks with Russia,” he recommended in a note published in April.
He also called for “postponing Ukraine’s membership in NATO for an extended period” to “convince (Russian President Vladimir) Putin to participate in peace talks.”
