Congressmen United States are urging the Pentagon to allow Californias National Guard to assist Ukraine
In the US, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, along with ten other members of Congress, wrote to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, urging that the California National Guard be granted broader authority to assist Ukraine. According to US legislators, Austin and Blinken have been requested to remove administrative and procedural impediments that have impeded the Guard’s response in the Ukraine conflict.
“The National Guard of California is ready, willing, and able to assist with humanitarian efforts in Ukraine. However, bureaucratic roadblocks keep them from doing so. The requisite authorities must be approved by @SecDef and @SecBlinken for the Guard to do more to alleviate Ukraine’s suffering “In a tweet, Schiff expressed his dissatisfaction with the current administration.
According to lawmakers, the California Air National Guard may use its airlift capabilities to transport food, medical supplies, and other relief resources to the region.
Ukraine will receive additional military aid from the United States.
During a meeting with Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, on Saturday in Warsaw, President Trump is said to have promised “more defense cooperation.” The Biden administration has previously delivered Ukraine with $1 billion worth of militarily lethal hardware, including Stinger anti-aircraft systems, Javelin missiles, and light anti-armor weapons.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy has pressured the US to authorize the transfer of MiG-29 fighter jets from Poland, but the White House, terrified of escalating the conflict, has yet to be persuaded. The Kremlin hinted at a limitation in its war ambitions on Friday, stating that the “first phase” of its military campaign in Ukraine had ended and that Moscow would now concentrate on the “liberation” of Donbas in eastern Ukraine.
Since the beginning of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Russian military has expanded bombing and attacks in an attempt to seize control of the country’s key cities.
Millions of Ukrainians have escaped to surrounding nations, many of which are European Union members, while Ukrainian soldiers battle Russian military advances. There has been a global outcry against the conflict, not just from Ukrainians living abroad, but from individuals all over the world who are united in their opposition to the media’s depiction of the destruction and inhumanity.
