a russian troops in a slow moving counter offensive. and let's get more on this. we have team coverage . you got to use a abraham is in washington dc. an economy joins us with a view from keith. nick, i'd like to begin with you. so we just heard there ukraine getting another package of military aid from the united states, but zaleski didn't get everything that he wanted. did he exactly sorry he didn't get those attack comes long arrangements. saw that have been hopeful that with the 300 kilometer range could really allow ukraine saw attacking russian that just expressing crimea and in across occupied ukraine. that has something that has been on the top of ukraine's wish list for months. if not years. there's still hope that it might happen next time around, but i think this is more about the long term. lo being about trying to sure up that cost, but you are full of support. ukraine in washington. it will say about the future spending package. $24000000000.00 from few crane spending at being told to open
8:05 am
this real sense. but so the printer is, wants to remind people in washington what that would be useful and that would be use transparently. and there were a lot of think she was, i think that charged that ukraine is being ungrateful and has come to recognize the support them. preston for support, support it's received that has really strong. so there were lots of attempts to say thank you. going to need to know makers but also to the american people more widely . and there is a sense that yes, things on as easy as k, cause maybe they were last time around. polanski was in washington, but still this was largely successful. and a uh, zalinski, also meeting with us lawmakers, how much bipartisan support is there among law makers for sending more military assistance to ukraine as well. we have to say that you create in presidents owens can still enjoys great support across the out, including from very prominent republicans, such as mitch mcconnell, the senate minority leader, the key word here when it comes to growing resistance, you're creating funding is house republicans. i mean,
8:06 am
zalinski made this video visit as a difficult time for ukraine, right in the middle of the counter offensive. but also this is a politically fraught time here in washington at the united states house of reps, the representative is currently debating a budget that includes, as nick mentioned, an extra $24000000000.00 in funding for ukraine. and there is a minority in the republican controlled house that is vehemently opposed to giving you credit any more money and their leader and the leader of the house. speaker mccarthy is also in a politically difficult situation. he's facing a growing rebellion among his ranks and he's trying as much as possible not to provoke them further so that she doesn't get out to then ukraine is definitely a, a sticking issue there. and you know, that package will be avoided on, on, on september 30th. and it remains to be seen if you know it was once he was able to make an argument convincing enough to these house republicans that money the,
8:07 am
the new 8 package that was announced by the white house of $325000000.00. i believe that's all utilizing existing funding and so new funding is key. a key to what extent is that the that sentiment that we're hearing from those house republicans playing to some public opinion out there? how steadfast is the support for ukraine among the public? it's winning, we're 19 months into the conflict and there is a sense of fatigue among the american population. a recent pull showed that 55 percent of the majority of americans are actually opposed to congress authorizing any more uh, funding for ukraine. we are, you know, ahead of an election year where republicans are already using the ukraine issue to stroke up support opposing your more funding for your crew cream. we're seeing that we saw this in the republican primaries already. we're also in the middle of a cost of living a crisis so that it seems that for the average american,
8:08 am
whenever they hear about ukraine, they hear about the battlefield, which often they hear is not going very well, or they're hearing about how much money their government is the is giving to you free. okay. nick zalinski is now in canada. what does he hope to achieve there? well, i think canada, i like us doesn't have lots of weapons in stuff that it can just send this way. it has financially supported lots of weapons purchases for ukraine. but i think this and again, about rectitude and about it's kind of expressing that gratitude and showing up especially links with the big printing desperate in canada. that is, was a political, influential, that, and it is about showing that ukraine is a single, so willing to be transparent and talked about and explain how this money is being spent. not just in the us, those questions about how that money is being spent about corruption and you printing government that is increasingly problematic for them. so they're really trying to, so they're listening to that criticism and kind of offering on so as an economy and he's a abraham in washington. thank you so much to both of you to the
