the, the, this is data i was in use live for umbrella in the us house of representatives, passes as an entry, need that aid for ukraine. the $61000000000.00 package provide suppress weaponry and munitions to keep assets fights back against the russian forces attempting to capsize territories. also coming up, ukraine's army builds improvised weapons to make up for diminishing aid and a weapons stockpiles dw exclusive reports looks at how old i tend to be, is being pieced together to keep so just on the nigeria and chess, chunky and briggs, the weld records for the longest chest myers that talking 68 straight hours to

raise money for on the privilege to the i. i'm eddie mike, a junior and you welcome to the program. law major has in the united states have passed a crucial 61000000000 that i a package for ukraine. the bill how to broad bipartisan support with 311 volts in favor to 112 votes against. probably guns have delayed the bill for months due to cross potty wrangling, washington has been ukraine's biggest bi caught in its war against russia. the bill will now go to the senate where it's expected to pass in the coming days. between presidents let them as lensky as a know, be long and hard for continues us backing. you have this to so you have to devote

of the store. i signed to everyone who supported our package. this is a life saving decision. i'm grateful personally to speak of mike johnson, michael johnson, to all american hearts who like us in the ukraine, feel good russian evil definitely should not prevail. i hope that the package will be considered in the us senate and submitted to president biden's task quickly enough for me on this. let's speak to date of use william clo crap title william big relief from the ukranian precedence. what's the money expect it to be useful? or well, most of it is for the us actually it's for weapons manufacturers. and the weapons industry in the united states is something that critics of this spending kind of were fast and loose with saying, you know, trying to frame it as some kind of gift to ukraine or free money or money leaving

the united states. remember, most of these weapons are american weapons. yeah. they have to be built like produced and bought somewhere and that's in the united states. so most of these billions going right back into the us economy, into the us weapons sector and to the us military. some of this money is for quote, operations in the region for the us military and something i found also very interesting in this bill is it raises a to an unspecified amount the president's own ability to use his so called draw down authority. now remember, congress officially has the constitutional right to control spending of us tax payer money. but over a long period of time, the executive branch, the president, has gotten considerable wiggle room and how much money he has to play with in his own coffers. that's one way that ukraine has been getting funded all this time, even without congressional support, through this draw down a funds within the defense department, for example,

or the state department for example. and that this bill raises the president's ability to do that. so in the future, if these problems come up where congress is dragging its feet in improving more money, the president might have more wiggle room to spend some of his own us walking around money shot we say, walking around money, interesting way to put data. what's also interesting is that this package for you cream has been on the table for months. why has it taken so long for congress to agree on a bill? i mean put it simply petty politics and a presidential election year. this have been caught up in domestic politics and being held hostage by people on the far right of the republican party, who are anti interventionist in some cases pro russian. and do not want to see a support for ukraine for a number of reasons that are either because of fiscal priorities. they think it's just too much money. they don't want to spend it national debt reasons of borrowing reasons. or like i said, they don't really support ukraine. they might be

a bit more friendlier to russia. and donald trump, of course, has been wishy washy. just say the least on support for ukraine. and he's running for president and wants to keep this as a campaign issue and has tied the funding to ukraine among other foreign policy priorities. but united states like israel, like taiwan, to the border issue to immigration, which is another major campaign issue. and that's why it got tangs at 1st. republicans didn't want to cross donald trump, who there's are very loyal to but even that when they had a migration deal on the table in congress earlier in the winter, the, even that failed. i guess donald trump basically said no, no, no, keep this front and center. and that's basically why it's taking so long. and mike johnson, the speaker of the house, seemed to have a change of heart, a guard from just being a regular congressional, a person and congress to the leader of the house. realizing the foreign policy priority, 49 states and pushing us through finally, rights rights. what's also key to note is that at least 100 republicans voted

against a bill quite significant. how ward showed ukraine be about americans commitments to its fight. the right says this latest round of funding, which is the 1st new funding says 2022. and the 1st funding under a republican controlled congress. i took at least 6 months to get through an entire winter. ukraine has gone through a fighting without additional weapons or aid and uncertainty from the united states . biggest backer. with republicans, a 112 of them. a majority of them. voting against this. still, even after all of this bodes up for late for what be coming forward. for ukraine, should republicans hold on to congress, should donald trump when in november. and so while there's a great amount of relief from zalinski, as we heard that this huge transfer of funding has finally gone through and there will be fresh weapons and fresh support for ukraine. ukraine is by no means out of

the way just by no means safe with american support, depending how political developments continue this year and into the next year in the united states. right, you know, use whatever, you know, kraft thank you very much for the insights now as a has slowed to a trickle ukrainians have been forced to improvise, to keep the front line troops supplied did of use. and they kind of lead takes a look at how the coping and this exclusive report from the ukranian military facility. this type of scrap was once in and 77 or 10 recon. it's just a tiny part of the weapons graveyard that this ukrainian military facility. it's where west, the military tech comes from, the front lines to prove to west and donors that it's being used as intended. but more importantly, to be salvaged only. so our american counterparts just can't keep their heads around it to me when they see what we do with them, that they don't have to words let me know when they,

when they wouldn't even think about sending this kind of stuff to scrap, let alone repairing it. easily con, send to us that you could still recognizes artillery pieces. so that's not always the case anymore. it's not like we have a choice. is the western alms deliveries, which used to trickle these ukraine. you know, many engineers have to improvise. they call it kind of let them have making one function while tillery gun from what's left of many damaged ones. the engineers who tell us they know just to drop off and deliveries half way through 2023 even before the current funding delay like fan, initial western stockpiles were exhausted. after a year of war, new production, it's still a good job. what because here are essentially putting together puzzles of different parts every single day, some new, some salvage, and some can provide because they come in, we've struck no injuries, but we managed to get them healthy again. you could think he was speaking to a doctor, but the fighting the front lines is so intense. this man's patients are often back

in the repair shop within weeks posting to find out situations where the same gun comes back to me with a fresh damage or 2 or 3 of or even 3 full times. on the chef, when i perform the almost finished with and it's ready to go back to the front line up to the honda. there's only so much that cannibalizing damage equipment can do that. so i don't expect it. solutions come in. this was stripped from a commercial digger, so to improve solution in the guns manual, but it works great new phones. and that will also producing many of the simplest bags the premium. well, we don't need american build screws and whomever seals who can only put people to we can do all that ourselves. that's what we need or the big parts simply can't make ourselves less than what we don't get them as well. i guess we'll find a way we'll put something together out of that, the scrap that we have. but it's going to cost you the time with several links of

personal family chests. time that you create new troops in the front lines don't have russia is already taking advantage of ukraine's declining fire power to push forward the fewest ages held up any longer. many here in ukraine, worried that the slow retreat of recent months could soon turn into a route. the small star is making headlines around the wall. that's look at some of them to us how slow and they get us on past the land. mark bill effectively binding the popular social media platform, tick tock, unless it separates itself from its chinese parents. company by defense bill gifts they talk one year to salad state between us. these dentists low mucus from both parties, waste national security and data privacy concerns in japan, a search and rescue operation is on the way up to 2 navy helicopters crashed in the pacific ocean. one person has been confirmed that in 7 crew members are missing,
