For his part, Olaf Scholz expressed his hope that the congressmen will still approve the provision of aid to Ukraine from the US.

I hope the House of Representatives will follow you and make the necessary decision on support, - noted Scholz.

Will Ukraine have enough resources by the time US aid is approved?

According to the head of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, David Arahamia, in an interview with Report journalists, the US may make a decision on financing aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan within the next two months.

We have enough resources for two months, so we feel safe, - said Arahamiya.

He also emphasized that the new stage of mobilization in Ukraine cannot begin without the appropriate rotation, since funds are also needed for equipping and training the mobilized.

We had more than 200,000 trained soldiers in preparation for the counteroffensive. Some of them studied in Romania, France, Italy, Spain and other countries. According to existing agreements, the training was carried out at the expense of these countries, - Arahamiya explains.

He emphasized that in Ukraine they will look for the possibility of mobilization at the expense of only their own funds.

Recently, the European Union adopted a program of 50 billion euros for a period of 4 years. That is, we have certain financial resources for the next 4 years. Last week I was in the USA and witnessed the support for Ukraine. However, domestic issues related to the border still remain unresolved, said the People's Deputy.
