Biden Loses Temper During Call With Zelensky Over Military Aid by lhordspy(op): 8:23pm On Nov 01, 2022

The US president, Biden had barely finished telling Zelenskyy he’d just greenlighted another $1 billion in military assistance when the Ukrainian president started listing all the additional help needed.

* Mr Biden lost his temper and felt that Mr Zelensky could have showed more gratitude after a heated phone call.

President Joe Biden lost his temper with Volodymyr Zelensky during a phone call to discuss US military aid for Ukraine according to reports.

Having just approved an additional $1bn for Ukraine, Mr Biden reportedly became angry when Mr Zelensky pressed him for further assistance.

Mr Biden is said to have raised his voice during the 15 June call while pointing out the US’s generosity towards Ukraine, and said that Mr Zelensky could show more gratitude.

Mr Biden’s frustrations had reportedly been building for several weeks before the conversation, as Mr Zelensky suggested in public statements that aid wasn’t arriving quickly enough.

The leaders’ relationship has improved in the four months since then, administration officials told the network.

Resistance to US aid to Ukraine has stiffened in recent weeks, with Republican House leader Kevin McCarthy declaring there will be “no blank check” should his party take control of Congress in the midterms.

The Democrats’ Congressional Progressive Caucus also pressed the White House to negotiate directly with Russia, before withdrawing the request.Mr Biden has reportedly been discussing asking Congress for around $50bn in additional funding in the lame-duck session after November’s midterms.

According to figures from the State Department, the US has provided more than $20bn in security assistance since Russia first invaded Ukraine in 2014.

The Biden Administration has sent around $17.6bn since the start of the 2022 war in February

As Ukraine has clawed back significant parcels of territory from the Russians in recent weeks, Russia has stepped up missile strikes on key infrastructure and civilian targets.

Entitlement mentality bast*rd zelensky.

Just few days ago, the ukranian government called for the ban of iran from worldcup because of their ties with Russia. And that they should replace them with the Ukranian team that failed to qualify even after series of manipulation in their favour for them to qualify, by the US-controlled FIFA.

With the rate this is going, Zelensky may wake up one day and start demanding 10% every month from all countries.

It can be really exasperating with these continuous demands from Zelensky and having no meaningful headway in a self inflicted battle. By now, Biden is frustrated. There's enough challenges from the home front than to be bothered with an ego fueled war on the foreign scene. Well, this goes to show that the best of men is still a man.

Let me use this opportunity to send my condolences to Davido and my namesake, Chioma. May God strengthen you and grant you the fortitude to bear the pains of this great loss. May your sweet soul rest in peace Ifeanyi.
