Biden Claims $95 Billion Foreign Military Aid Bill is Good for "World Peace"

President Biden on Wednesday (April 24) signed a $95 billion foreign military aid bill into law and claimed the legislation, which funds the proxy war in Ukraine and Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza, is good for “world peace.”

“It’s a good day for America, it’s a good day for Europe, and it’s a good day for world peace, for real. This is consequential,” Biden said.

The legislation breezed through the Senate on Tuesday (April 23), passing in a vote of 79-19. It was passed on Saturday (April 20) as four separate bills in the House, where it also received strong bipartisan support.

Biden thanked Republican leaders for supporting the legislation. “I want to thank everyone in Congress who made it possible, especially the bipartisan leadership: Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson; Leader Jeffries; Leaders Schumer and McConnell. They don’t always agree, but when it matters most, they stepped up and did the right thing,” he said.

Biden claimed that there were reports of Ukrainian soldiers cheering in the trenches of eastern Ukraine when the aid was approved by the House. “This weekend, there are reports — and this is — I find this amazing. There are reports of cheers breaking out of the trenches in eastern Ukraine,” he said.

After Biden signed the bill into law, the Pentagon announced a new $1 billion weapons package for Ukraine.
