Biden under pressure: Hurry for arms deliveries to Ukraine after devastating attack!

The world looks banned on Ukraine, while the bid administration acts in a race against time! After a shocking attack in Russia on Christmas Day, which targeted the country's energy infrastructure, President Joe Biden took immediate measures to secure military help for the brave nation.

On Wednesday, December 25th, Russian drones and rockets hit in Ukraine and left devastation. At least six people were injured in Charkiw, and there was a death in Dnipropetrovsk. President Wolodymyr Selenskyj spoke of a hideous act that was deliberately laid on the holiday. "What could be more inhumane?" he asked in an emotional post on X.

The urgency of the help

The bid administration is on alert! With the impending takeover of Donald Trump on January 20, 2025, concern is growing that the support for Ukraine could be on the brink under the new president. Trump has already expressed his skepticism about the financial means for Ukraine and indicated that he could possibly reduce the help. Therefore, it is crucial for bidges to mobilize as much support as possible before the political landscape changes.

In an official explanation, bidges condemned the attack and emphasized the need to secure the access of the Ukrainian population to warmth and electricity during winter. "The United States has provided hundreds of air defense rockets in the past few months, and others are on the way," said Biden and ordered a "wave of arms".

The numbers speak for themselves

Since the beginning of the comprehensive war of Russia against Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the US government has promised impressive $ 61.4 billion in security aid. On December 2 alone, a military aid package worth $ 725 million was announced, which includes air defense missiles and ammunition. On December 7, another package of over 988 million dollars followed, which included drones and ammunition for the Himars rocket artillery systems.

But time is pushing! With the Republicans who take control of both chambers of the new congress, it could be difficult for bidges to approve new means. Nevertheless, the bid administration still has a considerable amount in the hindquarters to support Ukraine before Trump takes over the business. It is estimated that between $ 4 and $ 5 billion are still available to provide the urgently needed help.

"We will continue to provide additional packages by the end of this administration," promised John Kirby, the spokesman for the USA national security, on December 13th. The clock ticks and Ukraine needs any support that it can get!
