US - President Biden signs Ukraine lend-lease act, a program resurrected from WWII | FRANCE 24 English

Tweet 

12 May 2022

The US has pledged tens of billions of dollars for Ukraine. With time of the essence, President Joe Biden signed legislation that was last used during World War II.

We take a closer look at the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 and get analysis from FRANCE 24's International Affairs Commentator, Douglas Herbert.

The Lend-Lease Act policy, which was formally titled “An Act to Promote the Defense of the United States,” was a WW2-era program in the early 1940s under which the United States supplied the United Kingdom, Free France, the Republic of China, and later the Soviet Union and other Allied nations with necessary wartime provisions of food, oil, and other critical materials between 1941 and August 1945.

In an exclusive phone call with CNN, Paul Whelan called on President Biden to "aggressively discuss and resolve" the issue of United States citizens being detained for political purposes when he meets President Vladimir Putin at a summit later this month. Whelan -- who is a US, Irish, British and Canadian citizen -- was detained at a Moscow hotel in December 2018 by Russian authorities who alleged he was involved in an intelligence operation. US officials have condemned his sentencing and Whelan denies the charges.

 

В эксклюзивном телефонном разговоре с CNN Пол Уилан призвал президента Байдена «агрессивно обсудить и решить» проблему задержания граждан США по политическим причинам, когда он встретится с президентом Владимиром Путиным на саммите в конце этого месяца. Уилан, гражданин США, Ирландии, Великобритании и Канады, был задержан в московском отеле в декабре 2018 года российскими властями, которые утверждали, что он участвовал в разведывательной операции. Официальные лица США осудили его приговор, и Уилан отрицает обвинения.
