about possible corruption, although the auditors did not find it, as the us ambassador to ukraine bridget brinkersonally assured the speaker, and the ukrainian authorities are not against inspections. they say that we just need to understand where this money goes, we need to understand how it is used, because it is our taxpayers' money. the question is absolutely correct, i emphasize again and again, we are ready to give an answer for all the help that comes from the territory of the united states. and even if there is help will be adopted in various packages, it will not stop, because there is support, the representative of the republicans reassures. the white house and congress will agree. and the white house and congress will agree, without a doubt, to talk about the fact that the discussion of financial aid to ukraine may be delayed, even negatively reflect on ukraine, there is no reason. absolutely, these politicians want to eliminate as much as possible their priorities that were in their order. and the issue of the border with mexico is indeed key for the same republicans, so they should

let's bring in bridget brink. president is asking for for ukraine, is that enough to help ukraine finish the job, meaning pushing back putin's troops permanently? >> dana, thank you so much for having me. i would just say that i completely agree with the president, our administration and i'm on the ground watching what is happening and supporting ukraine together with my team. helping ukraine push russia out and push russia back to the 1991 borders is a question for ukraine but it is in u.s. strategic interest that we help them do that. and we are there on the ground fighting with ukraine to help support this effort but without boots on the ground. we're doing it through provision of military assistance, security assistance, not money but arms and weapons to help the ukrainians fight. >> dana: secretary blinken talked about moscow using hamas to distract from ukraine. >> putin is trying to take advantage of the hamas attack on israel in the hopes it will distract us and will result in the united states pulling bac

about the prospect of cuts to us aid emerged during two visits to washington this month, first by bridget brinke us ambassador in kiev and then by a delegation of senior ukrainian officials. both visits included trips to capitalist hill to advocate for ukraine's interests in increasing financing the armed forces of direct budget support, both remained without... results. defense secretary lloyd austin arrived in kiev on monday to offer some reassurances to ukrainian leaders on behalf of the biden administration. austin met with zelensky and defense minister rustem umerov, as well as general valery zaluzhny, the country's top military officer. austin's visit was also intended to send a message that american support will not be undermined by israel's war with hamas militants in the gaza strip. but pentagon representatives stated that they are now dosing out aid to ukraine as the supply of available funds is depleted. officials of the traveling sosti. said washington would, at least for some time, be able to continue sending aid, including long-range weapons and artillery ammunition that are a cor

austin, instead of him, the head of the pentagon was met by the united states ambassador to ukraine bridget brinkkiev spontaneously like this, they demonstrate that they are not making a visit of friendship, they are coming to stay forever. in general, the west has made it clear to zelsky many times that it is already tired of his endless requests, so this time the head of the pentagon brought a rather symbolic amount, and perhaps zelsky’s refusal to meet him in person is connected precisely with this, there are not enough gifts, but meanwhile, our ambassador antonov called this package american aid, kiev... the tragic symbolism is that the next aid package was announced on the eve of the decade of euromaidan. the message about another american arms supply to the regime is nothing more than a calming pill prepared for zelsky by ocean benefactors. the situation at the front in the ukrainian government is on the verge of complete collapse. well, this amount of assistance will absolutely not be able to help kiev survive , much less win, zelsky said that he would stand to the last at any cost and wou

bridget brink, and i guess we can put the same question to you.would be on nato if the u.s. would start to pull back, or decrease its support for ukraine? >> thank you so much, joe and micah, for having me on today. it's great to see you. i think it's plain and simple. if we don't continue this fight, ukraine, russia will when. and that will have a extremely delirious effect on our strategic incident. it will cost us more overtime. it will mean that russia will most likely take over, and annihilate ukraine and be on the border with nato. costing us more in repositioning troops to be even more on nato's eastern front. costing us more in terms of what we have to take away from other parts of the world. it's posing a direct threat of world war iii. the consequences couldn't be higher, the stakes couldn't be higher. it's excellent shull to ukraine, this fight, but in our overwhelming strategic interest of the united states that we help ukraine to prevail. and to push russia out of ukraine. >> madam ambassador, the conflict in ukraine has slipped from
