New U.S. aid for

Ukraine by year-end
seems increasingly

out of reach

WASHINGTON (AP) — A deal to pro-
vide further U.S. assistance to Ukraine
by year-end appears to be increasing-
ly out of reach for President Joe Biden.
The impasse is deepening in Congress
despite dire warnings from the White
House about the consequences of in-
action as Republicans insist on pairing
the aid with changes to America’s im-
migration and border policies.
After the Democratic president said
this past week he was willing to “make
significant compromises on the bor-
der,” Republicans quickly revived de-
mands that they had earlier set aside,
hardening their positions and attempt-
ing to shift the negotiations to the right,
according to a person familiar with the
talks who was not authorized to public-
ly discuss them and spoke on condition
of anonymity. President Joe Biden meets with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office of the White House, Thursday,
Sept. 21, 2023, in Washington.
