McCarthy 2.0? President Mike Johnson's plans to provide aid to Ukraine have led to a crisis within the Republican House of Representatives

So why does he now suddenly want to send $61 billion to Ukraine? American journalist and expert at VRT, Björn Sonnens, believes there are several reasons.

He added: “He himself indicates that he wants to do the right thing. In addition, the proposed aid to Ukraine is partly a loan, and not a gift, as the Democrats are asking for.”

Johnson will also have a new opinion on Ukraine because of his position as president. “The Speaker of the House is the third most powerful person in American politics. He now has access to information he didn't have before, like security briefings from the security services. This gives him greater visibility into the situations that matter to us.” National Security.”

Sonnens asserts that Johnson has not achieved a complete transformation, but rather is limping on two legs. He added, “He could also present the package approved by the Senate in February to the House of Representatives. He does not want to do that because he is not the architect of that plan himself.”

“There is a special procedure for voting on those plans, without Johnson having to put that package on the table. That will still be possible if the plans are not approved on Saturday.”
