The White House announced that US President Joe Biden will veto the bill on supporting Israel if it does not include aid to Ukraine and guarantee border protection.

The White House Office of Management and Budget said in a statement on Monday: “If the President is presented with this bill, he will veto it. The administration is persistently calling on both chambers of Congress to reject this political maneuver and instead forward to the President a bipartisan bill on allocate additional resources to national security needs as quickly as possible.”

The office indicated that the US administration opposes the adoption of a draft law on supporting Israel alone, because it “is devoid of any measures to protect the borders” and to support Ukraine.

It is noteworthy that a group of senators submitted a draft law on providing support to Israel. A vote on the bill is expected this week.

This comes at a time when the Senate presented a budget bill worth $118 billion, which includes a security aid package worth $14.1 billion to Israel and $60.06 billion to Ukraine.

In turn, House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that the bill submitted by the Senate “will not pass.”
