Between internal Republican quarrels and standoff with President Joe Biden, the American Congress was paralyzed again on Wednesday February 7, unable to validate any envelope for Ukraine or Israel.
In the afternoon, American senators rejected a text that would have released new funds for these two countries at war and reformed the United States' migration system.
This, despite months of tough negotiations.
Under pressure from Donald Trump, who still maintains enormous control over his troops in Congress, most Republicans ultimately voted against it – even those who initially supported him.
The Senate should immediately try its luck again on another text whose outcome is more uncertain.
This is the same bill as the first, simply without migration reform.
The United States, the main military supporter of Ukraine with more than 110 billion already released by Congress, has been struggling for months to send new funds to kyiv.
The Democratic general staff, in charge in the Senate, is exploring a series of scenarios to validate this aid at all costs.
