The White House agrees on the need to strengthen control over assistance to Ukraine

"We agree with members of Congress on the expansion of the audit," RIA Novosti quoted Kirby as saying.

Earlier, the Republican Party presented in the House of Representatives of the US Congress a bill on the audit of funds that go to assist Ukraine.

In addition, Republican Congressman Thomas Massey said the United States needs to start scrutinizing where Kyiv has spent the $60 billion already channeled by Washington.
