White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan rebutted criticism Wednesday from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for not extending the war-torn nation’s NATO membership.
“Thank you for acknowledging the American people,” Biden replied. “I think we’ve given more than every other nation combined.”
Zelensky on Tuesday fired off a fiery tweet rebuking NATO leaders for preparing an “unprecedented and absurd” new document describing how his country would not be permitted to join the military alliance until member nations agree that certain conditions are met. Zelensky offered a more measured assessment Wednesday morning, saying at a press conference alongside NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg that it was “understandable” that NATO leaderswith Russia by admitting Ukraine now, but adding that an invitation would be an important “signal” to Moscow.
Congress has approved more than $113 billion in aid for Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February 2022.“The United States of America has stepped up to provide an enormous amount of capacity to help ensure that Ukraine’s brave soldiers have the ammunition, air defense, the infantry, fighting vehicles, the mine clearing equipment and so much else to be able to effectively defend against Russia’s onslaught and to take territory back as well,” Sullivan also said.
