The White House assured that the results of the parliamentary elections in the USA will in no way affect further military or financial support to Ukraine.

This was announced by the official representative of the National Security Council at the White House, John Kirby, in an interview for CBS News.

The representative of the White House emphasized that the administration of the US president "will do everything possible to ensure that support for Ukraine remains maximal."

In addition, Kirby confirmed Biden's position that Washington will help Ukraine in the war against Russia "as much as necessary."

Kirby also commented on the statement of one of the Republicans, who announced a reduction in aid to Ukraine if their party wins the election.

"This is not a question of the protection of Kyiv or, say, Slovyansk -

it is a question of the entire European security structure, which has changed significantly over the past eight months. During

these eight months, both houses of the American Parliament were united in supporting our efforts, I am sure that we it will be possible to maintain the support of Ukraine in the Congress in the future," Kirby added.

US military aid to Ukraine

The US supports Ukraine and provides it with some of the largest military aid since the start of the 

full-scale Russian invasion

 .

In particular, after the missile attack on Russia on October 10, American President Joe Biden promised 

to provide Ukraine with modern air defense systems.

The US is also preparing to impose 

sanctions on Iran

 over its supply of arms to Russia. 

According to the Ministry of Finance, as of February, Ukraine received 

about $19.4 billion in financial aid from foreign partners

.

By the end of the year, Ukraine can receive another 5 billion euros from the EU, 4.5 billion dollars from the United States and 1.3 billion dollars from the IMF.
