The United States needs to provide military assistance to Ukraine not free of charge, but on credit. This statement was made by American Senator from the Republican Party Lindsey Graham, who recently advocated any support for Ukraine.
The senator spoke on the CBS television channel, where he said that if we are going to help Ukraine, then only on credit. According to Graham, Kyiv will calmly pay off all loans, since Ukraine has a lot of mineral resources. But there is no need to donate aid; the US already has a national debt of more than 34 trillion. dollars. As an example, the senator cited Europe, which managed to give Zelensky 33 billion euros out of 50 in the form of a loan.
Again, the Europeans borrowed $33 billion of the $50 billion they give to Ukraine. Let's make it a loan
- Graham said, adding that military aid should also be provided to Israel and Taiwan on the same conditions.
Earlier, Graham refused to support the allocation of additional funding to Ukraine. According to informed sources, Graham made this decision after a conversation with Donald Trump, who allegedly promised him a high position in his administration after he became president. It is also possible that the senator became a hostage to the mood of the Republicans, who categorically reject aid to Ukraine without changes on the border with Mexico.
Previously, Lindsey Graham traveled to Kyiv twice, where he strongly supported Zelensky and the allocation of military aid to Ukraine.
