White House National Security Council Coordinator John Kirby confirmed during the press conference that military aid that the United States has provided to Ukraine for so long is suspended. Congress has not yet approved emergency spending requested by US President Joe Biden’s administration.
“The assistance we provided has now stopped,” Kirby said. “The attacks carried out by the Russians continue to increase. And now, as I mentioned earlier this week, they are using North Korean ballistic missiles to do their dirty work. So the need is acute right now, especially during these winter months.”
Kirby said Washington had made “the final draw that we were supposed to fund,” the website reported CNBC.

“And that’s why it’s important that Congress continues to consider this additional national security request and that we get more funding. “The assistance we provided has now stopped,” Kirby said.
At the end of December, the US Department of Defense announced the latest military aid package for Ukraine worth $250 million, or more than five and a half billion Czech crowns. This package currently remains the last for Ukraine.
In the US, passage of the package is being blocked by Republican demands for stricter migration policies. Republicans made aid to Ukraine contingent on strengthening the border with Mexico and implementing their preferred foreign policy.

The Czech doctor and Olympian Lukáš Pollert also commented on the suspension of military aid to Ukraine on the social network X. He concluded from the situation that Ukraine had no chance against Russia and therefore suggested a diplomatic solution: “US aid to Ukraine has completely stopped,” said Kirby. This makes it clear that Ukraine cannot win over Russia. On the contrary: you have to negotiate diplomatically. There is no other chance. That is, if we don’t want to start World War III, which some crazy people want.”

“Stopping US aid is a turning point,” said political scientist Vladimír Votápek, summing up the situation and saying that everything looked very serious. “The actual cessation of American aid to Ukraine means a fundamental increase in the risk of a Putin victory,” he wrote on X, adding that Ukraine relies on support from the West, especially the United States.
According to Votápek, Western politicians are probably underestimating the situation. “Are Western politicians, including ours, even aware that without strong Western help we can have the Russian army on the borders of Slovakia within a few months?” Votápek asked on the networks.
Stopping US aid is a turning point.
This looks very serious. The de facto cessation of US aid to Ukraine means a fundamental increase in the risk of a Putin victory.
While Moscow has been able to maintain revenues from raw material exports and revive its defense industry, Kiev is still heavily dependent on support…— Vladimír Votápek (@votapek532) January 12, 2024
The leader of the Liberal Ecological Party Džamila Stehlíková responded to Votápka. In their opinion, it is simply a gap in aid deliveries. “It’s just an argument. The USA will roll. Otherwise it will end,” Stehlíková said.
No, it’s just a rant. The USA will roll. Otherwise it ends.

“The Russian army will not be on the Slovak border, but on the Czech border,” one of the social network users replied to Votápka. “There will be a ‘hero’s reception’ in Slovakia and Hungary.”
The Russian army will not be on the Slovak border, but on the Czech border. “Heroes” will be welcomed in Slovakia and Hungary.

The fact that the Russian army could be on the Slovakian border in a very short time without Western help, as Votápek wrote, was primarily not recognized by the European Union, according to the panelist, especially by Germany and France. “For 4 years he has known that the US has enough of its own worries in the Pacific and for 4 years he has done nothing, on the contrary, he continues to weaken defense capabilities.” “It is becoming increasingly clear that Eastern Europe is a good price for a deal with Russia is,” he wrote on X.
The EU in particular is not aware of this. Or the EU (Germany and France) doesn’t care. For 4 years he has known that the US has enough of its own worries in the Pacific and for 4 years he has done nothing, on the contrary, he continues to weaken defense capabilities. It is becoming increasingly obvious that Europe is a good price for a deal with Russia.

According to another commentator, the US provoked the war. “I, on the other hand, believe that the US provoked the war and understood that it was another Vietnam or Afghanistan.” Furthermore, if Israel collapses and almost the entire Arab world is against them… In other words: The Ukraine is no longer a priority.”
I, on the other hand, think that the US provoked the war, understanding that it was another Vietnam or Afghanistan… And besides, if Israel collapses and almost the entire Arab world is against them… In other words, Ukraine has ceased to be a priority…Thanks to war support Ukr. Hundreds of thousands of people died needlessly.

Former MP Lubomír Volný joked about the situation. “It’s funny how the local libtard bastards don’t understand it,” he wrote on X. In his opinion, the West has no role in Ukraine and the whole war is just an attempt to weaken Russia. “This attempt, over a MILLION dead Ukrainians, failed, so now the losses are being counted, the rest of Okrajina will be ruined, and sometimes another attempt will be made against Russia,” Volný predicted, adding that the West behaves similarly have for several centuries. “This time the Ukrainians paid for it, who’s next?” Guess what,” he wrote darkly.
It’s funny how the local libtard bastards don’t get it.
Ukraine and Ukrainians, the “West” is always and always CALM. It was ALWAYS just an attempt to weaken Russia.
This attempt, with over a MILLION dead Ukrainians, failed, so now the losses will be added up, the rest of Okraina will be ruined and another time…— Lubomír Volný – FREE block (@lubomir_volny) January 12, 2024
