On Wednesday, six Republicans joined Democrats to force a vote on military aid for Ukraine, dealing a blow to President Donald Trump's policy after he had previously refused U.S. support for Kyiv.
According to Ukrinform, The Hill stated this in an article.
The House voted 218-204 on a procedural motion that clears the way for a vote on the "Ukraine Support Act," introduced by Democrat Gregory Meeks, the ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
"This vote is not a process vote, it’s a statement on whether this Congress and all of its members stand with and support Ukraine and the people of Ukraine, and its fight for freedom, its fight for democracy, and its fight for liberty," Meeks said on the House floor after the vote.
