Kyiv • UNN
Biden promises to immediately sign bills providing critical aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan after congressional approval to support allies against threats from Russia and Iran.
U.S. President Joe Biden assured that he would immediately sign the bills of U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson on assistance to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan after they are approved by Congress, UNN reports citing a statement from the White House.
"...strongly support this package to gain important support for Israel and Ukraine, provide much-needed humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in Gaza, and strengthen security and stability in the Indo-Pacific region. Israel is facing unprecedented attacks from Iran, and Ukraine is facing continued bombing by Russia, which has increased dramatically over the past month," Biden said in a statement.
The US President emphasized that the House should pass the package this week and the Senate should follow immediately.
"I will sign this law immediately to send a message to the world: we stand with our friends and will not allow Iran or Russia to succeed," Biden summarized.
