Ukraine’s government said Sunday it was confident in the strength of U.S. support for its war against Russia, downplaying any uncertainty after the House passed a stopgap spending bill to avert a government shutdown that did not include money for Ukraine.
The White House and leaders of both parties in the Senate had pushed for Ukraine funding to be included in the bill, which passed late Saturday. Members of both parties said they were confident that further financial commitments would be agreed, but the failure to provide any money for Ukraine on Saturday highlighted the decreasing willingness of some Republicans to fund Kyiv’s war effort.
