According to Jaipal, the letter was written and signed several months ago, but was not made public until Monday, October 24.
She noted that this gave the impression that the Democrats do not support large-scale assistance to Ukraine.
She called this impression false.
“At present, this looks like a distraction, and we are withdrawing the letter,” RIA Novosti quoted Jaipal as saying.
Earlier, information appeared about a letter from a group of US congressmen to President Joe Biden calling for negotiations with Russia on the situation in Ukraine.
John Kirby, strategic communications coordinator at the National Security Council, said the White House appreciates the call of congressmen, but Washington will not negotiate with Russia without the participation of Kyiv.
