On April 23, 2024, the U.S. Senate quickly passed the U.S. House of Representatives aid bill for Ukraine, which means that, according to the follow-up process, this bill will be sent to U.S. President Biden's desk, and after Biden signs the decree, President Zelensky will receive military aid from the United States a week later. The outside world is not surprised by this result at all, as long as the biggest obstacle of the US House of Representatives is solved, the Senate and the White House will inevitably sign a decree as soon as possible, and $61 billion in arms aid will be sent to Zelensky as soon as possible, so as to help Zelensky fight Russia to the end.
Regarding the rapid passage of the U.S. Senate aid bill to Ukraine, John Kirby, coordinator of strategic communications at the White House National Security Council, has made it clear that the United States is here to support Ukraine. In the face of John Kirby's remarks, Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov directly said in contemptuous language that since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the United States has assisted nearly 200 billion US dollars, but the result is only to make more people die in Ukraine, and now another 61 billion US dollars in aid will not have much effect.
The U.S. Senate quickly passed the $61 billion aid bill to Ukraine, what impact will it have on the situation between Russia and Ukraine, which is also a matter of concern to the outside world.
First, as Peskov said, from before the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict to two years after the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the combined amount of aid from the United States and Europe has reached $200 billion or three, but the results have been very limited. Ukraine is still losing troops, Ukraine is still losing more territory, and Ukraine is still suffering such a huge defeat in the context of the United States and the West's strong assistance to Ukraine, which also shows that although the assistance of the United States and Europe is important on the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine, it is not the only decisive factor. If the United States and Europe do not want to end up in person and rely only on indirect assistance to let Ukraine fight Russia to the end, this can only be a plan on paper. Therefore, even if the U.S. Senate passes the $61 billion aid bill for Ukraine this time, it can only be a dream to completely change the situation on the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine.
Second, the U.S. Senate passed the Ukraine aid bill, but there is no way to reverse the current disadvantage of Ukraine on the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine, and the reason for this judgment is based on another important factor. A Russia-Ukraine conflict has made the outside world see clearly the essence of the so-called foreign aid of the United States, in fact, as many people say, the United States talks about ism, but in its heart it is all business. How much of the $61 billion aid bill for Ukraine will remain in the United States and how much money will be given to Zelensky, the United States and Ukraine actually know very well. Previously, in order to strive for the passage of the U.S. aid to Ukraine bill, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kuleba, U.S. Secretary of State Blinken, and U.S. Secretary of Defense Austin have repeatedly stated on various occasions that only a very small part of the more than $100 billion that the United States has provided to Ukraine has gone to Ukraine's account, and most of them remain in the United States to achieve internal circulation. In the Ukraine aid bill passed by the US Senate and House of Representatives, $61 billion was divided among military industrial interests and other interest groups in the United States, but there was not much left for Ukraine. Therefore, from the perspective of the United States being good at war business, it can only be said that it is too naïve to think that the little money leaked in the hands of American capital can bring Zelensky back to life.
Third, as often said by the outside world, the United States and Europe's assistance to Ukraine has not been able to fundamentally change the outcome of the geopolitical conflict of the war in Ukraine because Ukraine is facing Russia. But as long as Ukraine is facing another small country or a country of the same size as Ukraine, after receiving the support of the United States and Europe, Ukraine will already defeat its opponents, and it will not be as difficult as Russia today. In fact, the United States sees very clearly that Russia is a supermilitary power with nuclear weapons, although the economy is not as good as that of the United States, but Russia has mines at home, and in the extreme case of war, energy resources have actually become the ballast stone for Russia to defeat the sanctions imposed by the United States and the West. What's more, the sanctions imposed by the United States and the West on Russia have not trapped Russia at all, and in the open network of global relations, Russia should still do business. More than 140 countries around the world are still conducting normal trade with Russia, and the United States cannot do anything, and of course it is impossible to impose sanctions on more than 140 countries around the world, otherwise it will only isolate the United States and the West.
In fact, as long as the sanctions imposed by the United States and the West on Russia are encircled and one is missing, Russia will definitely not be trapped to death, nor will it be starved to death, and in this case, Ukraine will not have much chance of winning. If Ukraine really wants to safeguard its national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and if it wants to truly consider the ordinary people of Ukraine, it should negotiate a ceasefire at the first opportunity. Ukraine should also submit the Ukrainian issue to the United Nations for discussion, instead of pinning its fate on the United States and NATO, after all, for the United States and NATO, Ukraine is just a pawn to consume and contain Russia. The problem at present is that it is impossible for Zelensky to achieve such a turn, as the saying goes, there is no turning back from the bow, and it is impossible for Zelensky to get off the ship safely and safely when he gets on the American thief ship.
