Following Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, the House of Representatives of the United States has a budget of 13.6 billion dollars in total, including about 1.6 trillion yen in Japanese yen, for the provision of weapons and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine. The proposal was passed in favor of bipartisan.
On the 9th, the House of Representatives of the United States passed a budget proposal including a total of $ 13.6 billion and about 1.6 trillion yen in Japanese yen as emergency assistance following Russia's military invasion of Ukraine. ..
The bill includes $ 3.5 billion to provide weapons to Ukraine, about $ 3 billion to send US troops to neighboring countries of Ukraine, and humanitarian aid such as food and medicine.
The Biden administration initially demanded a budget of $ 10 billion from Congress, but with growing criticism of Russia, it has increased by more than $ 3 billion under a bipartisan agreement.
The ruling and Democratic Party leaders say, "Urgent support is needed for Russia's illegal and out-of-the-way military invasion."
The bill is expected to be passed by the Senate soon and will be passed with the signature of President Biden.
The Biden administration has provided Ukraine with more than $ 1.4 billion since last year, including announcing additional military support of $ 350 million and about $ 40 billion in Japanese yen on the 26th of last month. The approved budget is nearly ten times as large.
