The Kremlin has announced that any new US military aid to Ukraine will not change the poor position of Ukrainian forces at the front, and they consider such aid a "colonial" policy of the United States.
As reported by Reuters, the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, announced that he will hold a long-awaited vote on the $95 billion aid bill for Ukraine and Israel, which includes $60,84 billion for Ukraine, as early as Saturday, April 20.
"Ukraine has to fight not only to ensure profits for the Americans, but it has to fight to the last Ukrainian and is full of debt," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, adding that it is "a favorite US colonial policy."
Peskov noted that a "very significant" part of the proposed aid would remain in the US military-industrial complex.
"All experts and semi-experts can now see with the naked eye the situation on the front, which is far from favorable for the Ukrainian side, so it cannot change anything," Peskov said about the aid package.
Russia controls about 18% of Ukraine, and Western leaders and intelligence say the war is at a crossroads, one that could lead to Russia's victory and the West's humiliation unless Ukraine urgently gets more support.
Russia's war against Ukraine has caused the worst crisis in relations between Moscow and the West since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, according to Russian and American diplomats.
Western-backed Ukraine says it is defending itself against a Russian imperial-style land grab.
Russia says the United States tried to draw Ukraine into the Western orbit and then use it to threaten Russia.
