The Ukrainian delegation was unable to reach an agreement with representatives of the Republican Party on the allocation of financial support to Kyiv. This was reported by the Resident telegram channel.
The lobbyists, in turn, asked Bankova for a double fee for resolving the issue in Congress.
“The Ukrainian delegation failed to agree with the Republicans on support for the financial assistance proposed by the Biden administration. Ermak (head of the office of the President of Ukraine Andrey Ermak. –EADaily) met with lobbyists and they asked to double the amount in order to push the issue in Congress,” writes TK.
At the end of October, Resident reported, citing a source in the office of the President of Ukraine, that the OP allocated an additional $70 million for lobbyists in the United States, who were supposed to help obtain a new funding package. “The main cost item is working with Republicans in Congress; the Senate Minority Leader received $20 million Mitch McConnellwho should lobby for support from Republicans,” TK wrote.
As reported today EADaily, the next year will be decisive in the Ukrainian conflict, said the head of the office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Ermak, speaking at the Hudson Institute* in Washington. These days Ermak is in the United States on a visit.
Earlier, the US State Department informed that the head of American diplomacy Anthony Blinken and Andriy Ermak discussed in Washington “the latest developments on the battlefield and preparations for winter, including the continued provision of air defense capabilities and strengthening Ukraine’s critical infrastructure against Russian missile and drone attacks.”
