Ukraine does not have a plan B and is focused solely on obtaining a powerful aid package from the US Congress, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said after a meeting with G7 foreign ministers.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba did not predict the prospects for the adoption of a new bill on aid to Ukraine in the US Congress, but stressed that Kyiv has only Plan A - "making the strongest decisions for Ukraine." He said this during a telethon after a meeting of the foreign ministers of the Group of Seven countries in Italy, UNN reports .

Details

Kuleba refused to go into the details of the proposal by U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, but recalled his words that "we don't need a plan B, because our plan A is to make the strongest decisions for Ukraine, not half solutions.

And today I reminded the Secretary of State (Anthony Blinken - ed.) of this: look, I don't have a plan B, plan A must work - the adoption of a strong bill. And he supported me and said that we should be focused exclusively on strong solutions for Ukraine, i.e., on Plan A,

- the Foreign Minister added.

"But so many spears have already been broken and so many battles have taken place around this draft law - and will continue to take place - that let's just wait for the result," Kuleba summarized.

Recall

A $95 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan is expected to be passed by Congress, backed by House Democrats, on Saturday, April 20, despite opposition from some ultra-conservative Republicans.
