The US Congress has found a compromise to finance aid to Ukraine.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers in the US House of Representatives announced that they had agreed to a framework for legislation providing temporary funds that would allow continued aid to Ukraine beyond October 1, 2023, Reuters writes.

Members of the Resolution Group released a statement saying the group voted in favor of a temporary funding measure that will last until January 11, 2024. The interim funding to support the federal government also approves President Joe Biden’s request for a new round of emergency funding for Ukraine.

At the same time, the White House on Wednesday asked Congress to approve financing additional support for Ukraine. Also, White House spokesman John Kirby said that Biden is looking forward to meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to get information about the situation at the front.

Given the opposition expressed by some politicians, the White House has encouraged Zelenskyy to meet with US lawmakers to make the case for continued military support.
