President Joe Biden vows that the United States will not abandon Ukraine, despite aid being dropped from a deal to avoid a government shutdown, urging Republicans to “stop the games” on funding.
“I want to assure our American allies, the American people, and the people in Ukraine that you can count on our support. We will not walk away,” Biden says in an address from the White House.
