a surprise visit the keep this week to reaffirm washington support. he acknowledged that lawmakers delay in approving more military aid. that delay has left ukraine vulnerable. the government says that it has withdrawn from some areas because it simply does not have enough troops to fight all flushing attacks. we can says that the us is preparing a new package of weapons and funding for ukraine. we will provide an additional $2000000000.00 in foreign, military financing for ukraine. and we put this together in a 1st of its kind of defense enterprise fund. and it has 3 components. one is to provide weapons today. so this will assist you frame in acquiring those weapons to is to focus as well on something that mutual just talked about. investing in new kinds defense, industrial base, helping to strengthen even more its capacity to produce what it needs for itself, but also to produce for others. and finally, using this funds to help you frame purchase military equipment from other countries

. it's not just the united states. when you're gardening and lawmakers are in washington this week, hoping to persuade politicians there to allow ukraine's military to use us supplied weapons destroyed targets inside russia, dw, as washington bureau chief and his pulse spoke with the chairman of ukraine's ruling service of the people part. so you are meeting with lawmakers here in washington. what's the main purpose of your visit this time? yeah, there are 2 purposes. so the 1st purpose is, uh, thank you purpose because it finally we voted as a bolt into the package for ukraine, which is very important, especially now on 2nd this uh try to use uh, they are congressional power to put the pressure on the white house to change the policy where ukrainians, having the weapons can not heeds uh uh, targets that are on the russian territory. because right now the russians are

attacking ukrainian cities. hark, in particular from the russian territory. and with that situation would never be happened if we would have permission to use the weapons against those logistical sensors, command sensors, and so on. so we not to not talk about civilians, the target that's for sure on the military targets close to the ukranian border. but unfortunately for now, there is a still political block on this. so we had previous successful experience where lawmakers putting enough pressure on the white house and they changed the policy power. so how our lawmakers, so how is the white house arguing? why do they not allow you to use the weapons? you obviously have on russian territory. all the main argument to never change since the very beginning of the war. it's to, we believe that it would be to escalate 3, and there will be some additional escalation from russian side. we're leaving the war for 2 and a half years already. we know that there is nothing to escalate. this already

escalated at the top level. you know like we are right now, we have an attack to harkey for the cds twice bigger is of washington d. c. l. millions of people are living there. so like we have to protect the cd ride like there is nothing that they can escalate. they already putting lighting bombs, very huge ones destroying houses, basically wiping the city. so we don't know what could be more escalator. and so, finally, a moment of wonder for a great musician stevie wonder has taken citizenship in gunners and his acceptance speech. he spoke of his long held dream to be good, nathan, and his understanding of how the world can eventually come together. the truth is i'm committed to as know a gun and citizen being a part of fulfilling the dream that we have had for so many years of bringing
