Ukraine's foreign minister warns Congress 'time is running out' to pass funding deal for military aid.
Ukraine's foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba has warned that "time is running out" for Congress to pass a new funding deal for more military aid for Ukraine.
The Biden Administration and House Republicans have not reached a broader funding agreement, which would include an additional $60 billion in security assistance for Ukraine's war effort.
In an interview with ABC News, Kuleba claimed more money for Ukraine would potentially avoid a direct confrontation between NATO and Russia, in which American troops would be forced to intervene.
"Whatever the price of supporting Ukraine is now, the price of fixing the mess in the world if Ukraine loses will be much, much higher," he said.
He also warned the United States and its allies about the type of signal a Russian victory in Ukraine would send to other adversaries.
