Vladimir Putin is waiting for winter in Europe and January in America.
The announced figures for U.S. aid to Ukraine may soon reach 25 billion dollars, while financial guarantees of support and funding have long been offered by this country to the Ukrainians. Europe has also finalized plans to strengthen the process of military and financial aid to Ukraine.
These decisions by the Biden administration and its European allies naturally face their own obstacles. Economic issues and rising energy prices in Europe have made things difficult for European governments. Europeans continue to support helping Ukrainians, yet the growing scope of dissatisfaction cannot be ignored.
In America, extreme Republicans allied with Putin have promised that if their party takes control of the House of Representatives, the process of aid to Ukraine will face serious interruptions. From the very beginning of Putin’s aggression against Ukraine, they have shown serious alignment with him, and for years, the Russian president has been one of the most popular figures among American Republicans.
Putin is waiting for winter in Europe to tighten the situation for European governments and is waiting for January in America for his Republican allies to take control of the House of Representatives.
