TL;DR Summary

Senate Republicans are expected to block the advancement of a supplemental funding bill that includes financial aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, as well as provisions for border security. The vote, scheduled for Wednesday, is likely to fail due to Republican opposition, who are demanding stricter border regulations. President Biden urged Congress to pass the bill, warning that a failure to act would benefit Putin in the war against Ukraine. Meanwhile, Ukraine's president called on G7 leaders to confound Putin and maintain support for Ukraine. The bill's inclusion of border security measures has caused tensions between Republicans and Democrats, making it uncertain if the bill can pass. The impasse increases the likelihood that Congress will fail to approve more aid for Ukraine before the end of the year.
