Other allies have already helped Ukraine with money in the war much more than Washington, the NATO Secretary General emphasized.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg attacked the United States, shaming the Americans for the low level of assistance to Ukraine .

We are talking about a military package that legislators in Congress have not yet agreed upon for Kyiv. According to Stoltenberg, some of Ukraine’s allies have already helped it with more money than the United States. In this context, he mentioned the efforts of Canada and EU countries at a panel discussion at the Munich Security Conference.

“Therefore, now the time has come for the United States to fulfill its promise,” stressed the NATO Secretary General.

According to Stoltenberg, the delay in the decision by Congress is having a negative impact on the war, and this is already being felt on the Ukrainian battlefield. At the same time, he emphasized that it is important to make appropriate decisions not only “quickly,” but also “in advance.”

“Because it is urgent. Every week we wait, more and more people are being killed on the battlefield in Ukraine,” Stoltenberg said.

He clarified that it was not his place to advise Congress on anything, but a military aid package for Ukraine is an urgent need that must be addressed.

    The United States transferred $500 thousand from confiscated Russian assets to Estonia.

  2. Talking about NATO, it appears Mark Rutte is the favourite to take over from Stoltenberg this year. I have nothing against Rutte, the Dutch have provided a lot of aid to Ukraine, but do we need another politician without any military experience, leading a military alliance?

  3. Why can’t Haley and Harris run for POTUS instead of these ole corrupt senile sacks (Trump, Biden)?! This bullshit is beyond me.

  4. Hello Mr. Johnson, I hope you have a great vacation with your family.
