Biden Pushes for Continued Military Aid to Ukraine Amid Transition
- President Biden is focused on advocating military support for Ukraine as his term ends.
- Jake Sullivan underscored that Ukraine must determine its negotiation terms while urging for continued U.S. backing.
- The overall goal is to foster stability in Europe and uphold commitments to allies amid changing leadership.
As President Joe Biden's term nears its end with just 71 days remaining, he continues to advocate for increased military support for Ukraine amidst its ongoing conflict with Russia. Biden's commitment reflects a consistent policy over the last two and a half years, aiming to ensure Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Former President Donald Trump, who has expressed intentions to cut aid to Ukraine, is scheduled to meet with Biden to discuss the transition process, including international matters. Meanwhile, Biden's adviser, Jake Sullivan, emphasized the importance of maintaining international support for Ukraine and reducing global instability. In parallel, Biden seeks a cease-fire in Gaza, inviting global pressure on Hamas to facilitate negotiations for peace and the return of Israeli hostages.
