CNN: "As long as we can." Bideniltä on nyt ääni muuttunut kellossa.

Biden says US will support Ukraine "as long as we can": During a joint news conference with the Ukrainian leader Tuesday, Biden vowed the US will support Ukraine for as long as we can.

The comment represented a subtle but noteworthy shift in public messaging from the president, who previously said the US will support the country in its defense against the Russian invasion for as long as it takes.

Bidens comments could represent a more pragmatic view from the president on the future of Ukraine aid, with time and potentially political will running out before Congress breaks for the holidays to pass more funding, and with future security assistance uncertain under a potential new presidential administration.

Months ago, Biden vowed the countrys commitment to Ukraine will not weaken.
