Donald Trump demanded that European countries provide funding for Ukraine to “equalize” what the United States has provided.
He questioned why the U.S. gave Ukraine $100 billion more than European countries.
“Why isn’t Europe giving more money to help Ukraine? Why is it that the United States is over $100 Billion Dollars into the Ukraine War more than Europe, and we have an Ocean between us as separation!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“Why can’t Europe equalize or match the money put in by the United States of America in order to help a Country in desperate need? As everyone agrees, Ukrainian Survival and Strength should be much more important to Europe than to us, but it is also important to us! GET MOVING EUROPE!” he continued.
“In addition, l am the only one who speaks for ‘ME’ and, while it is a total mess caused by Crooked Joe Biden and the Incompetent Democrats, if I were President, this War would have never started!”
The statement comes as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) released the text of three foreign aid bills for Ukraine, Israel, and the Indo-Pacific.
The Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act allocates $60.84 billion to the country and is designed to “assist our regional partners as they counter Russia,” according to a memo released by the House Appropriations Republicans.
