Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other European leaders have applauded the US for passing a vital €89 billion aid bill which has been struggling to make it through the House of Representatives for months.

The House swiftly approved roughly €89 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other US allies in a rare Saturday session as Democrats and Republicans banded together after months of hard-right resistance over renewed American support for repelling Russia’s invasion.

With an overwhelming vote, €57 billion in aid for Ukraine passed in a matter of minutes, a strong showing as American lawmakers race to deliver a fresh round of US support to the war-torn ally. Many Democrats cheered on the House floor and waved blue-and-yellow flags of Ukraine.

    Putin has started the war and can end it at any time he pleases by removing his forces from the occupied regions of Ukraine.

      The hypocrisy here just reached a new height.

      The comment by another guy here says

      Apart from that, Putin is not willing to negotiate - they are willing to dictated terms

      And you say

      Putin has started the war and can end it at any time he pleases by removing his forces from the occupied regions of Ukraine.

      Which is exactly dictating terms instead of negotiating, and exactly what I am talking about when I say that you are on the side of those who are not willing to negotiate.

        You’re pulling an argument of another person into my argument and accuse me of hypocrisy based on that.
        You are arguing in bad faith, have a nice day.

          Ok sorry, both comments were heavily upvoted so I assumed this is the collective position, my bad.
