After months of political turbulence U.S. House of Representatives finally passed the aid bill, what this means for Ukraine and the U.S. To unpack the issue, TVP World invited Dr. Benjamin L. Schmitt a Senior Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania’s Kleinman Center for Energy Policy, and Gary Tabach the Former Chief of Staff and NATO Military Liaison Mission in Moscow.
“It’s very critical, not only for Ukraine but for the entire world and our allies,” said Gary Tabach and added, “as we say, American aircraft carrier turns very slowly, but once it turns, you better watch out.”
“Many of us gave up and said ‘they will never come to a common ground’ but he [Mike Johnson] was able to do that,” said Gary Tabach, praising Speaker of the House for managing to unite the U.S. House of Representatives enough to pass the aid bill.
“It should have been passed six months ago, and there is a lot that should have been done a lot earlier since the start of the war for the transatlantic community to supply the weapons needed for Ukraine to push back and eject Russian troops from their territory [...] but it’s a bare minimum…” said Dr. Benjamin L. Schmitt.
