Long-awaited aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan poised to pass US Congress
The U.S. Senate is set to approve billions of dollars in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan this week, following the House of Representatives’ approval of the assistance in a rare Saturday session. The package includes billion for Ukraine, billion for Israel, .12 billion to counter communist China in the Indo-Pacific, and potential measures such as a ban on TikTok. The aid is expected to pass the Senate and be signed into law by President Joe Biden, allowing for the quick delivery of military assistance to Ukraine.
