Johnson says House Republicans will soon unveil bill on Ukraine funding
By Ryan Chatelain Washington, D.C.
PUBLISHED 11:55 AM ET Apr. 01, 2024House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said Sunday night he expects to put a bill on the floor next week that would provide new military aid to Ukraine.
The Senate passed a $95.3 billion bill for foreign aid in February, including $60 billion to support Ukraine in its war against Russia. But Johnson has not put the measure up for a vote in the House, where some Republicans firmly oppose additional Ukraine assistance.

Clinton was off by 2 weeks.
In other not at all surprising news:
Die Nato will zukünftig die Koordination des Ukraine Krieges von der Ramstein Kontaktgruppe übernehmen.
Stoltenberg’s proposal would also give the Western alliance a more direct role in coordinating the supply of arms, ammunition and equipment to Ukraine as it fights Russia’s invasion.
Under the plans, NATO would take over some coordination work from a U.S.-led ad-hoc coalition known as the Ramstein group - a move designed in part to guard against any cut in U.S. support if Donald Trump returns to the White House, diplomats said.
Stoltenberg said the aim was for a decision to be taken at a July summit of NATO member states’ leaders. NATO decisions require consensus among its 32 members.
Until now, NATO as an organisation has focused on non-lethal aid for Ukraine out of fears that a more direct role could trigger an escalation of tensions with Russia. Its members have provided billions of dollars in arms on a bilateral basis.

Ausredenkalender durchblätter, ah - “Wegen Trump.”
Und das wo die US bisher doch so toll koordiniert haben.
Und sie werdens wohl auch weiterhin tun. Nachdem die Ukraine sowohl Saluschnyj als auch den Chef ihres Sicherheitsapparats im letzten Quartal durch Personen mit “weniger Rückhalt in ihren Departments” getauscht hat [The Ukrainian president dismissed Oleksiy Danilov, head of the national security and defence council, and replaced him with foreign intelligence chief Oleksandr Lytvynenko [great US contacts, just the best US contacts]], fällt es irgendwie schwer sich vorzustellen, dass die beide jetzt durch die Nato instruiert werden sollen… Das ist wohl der “some” Teil den dieser Nebensatz referenziert:
