Sullivan: Biden not sign bill to help Israel without Ukraine’s support

04.02.2024 22:54

US President Joe Biden will not support a bill initiated by Republicans in the House of Representatives to help Israel without taking into account Ukraine’s needs.

It follows from the words of US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in an interview with NBC News on Sunday, Ukrinform reported.

Citing “the perilous circumstances currently facing Israel,” House Speaker Mike Johnson on Saturday announced a stand-alone bill to provide aid to Israel after the Senate reached a tentative immigration deal that it intends to vote on this week.

Asked Sunday whether President Joe Biden would sign the bill if it comes to his desk, Sullivan dismissed it as a “ploy.”

“We regard the ploy — and we see it as a ploy that’s been put forward on the House side right now — as not being a serious effort to deal with the national security challenges America faces,” Sullivan said.

As reported, the White House criticized the attempts of Republicans in the House of Representatives to pass a bill on military support for Israel regardless of assistance to Ukraine and other urgent needs. White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre called these actions a ‘cynical maneuver’ and a ‘ploy’.
