Zelenskyy unsure where the $100 billion plus went in US Aid

Zelenskyy made the claim in a recent interview with the Associated Press, where he casually admitted to having no idea the whereabouts of the majority of the funds allocated by the Biden administration.

“When I hear – both in the past and even now – from the U.S., that America has provided Ukraine with hundreds of billions, as the president of a nation at war, I can tell you – we’ve received more than $75 billion,” he said. “We’re talking about tangible things because this aid didn’t come as cash but rather as weapons, which amounted to about $70 billion.”

"But when it’s said that Ukraine received $200 billion to support the army during the war – that’s not true," he added. "I don’t know where all that money went."

So what's the big deal? Did he check the floor of his car? Maybe it fell under the seats.

"Perhaps it’s true on paper with hundreds of different programs – I won’t argue, and we’re immensely grateful for everything. But in reality, we received about $76 billion," he stated. "It’s significant aid, but it’s not $200 billion."

This means Zelenskyy is unsure of where just over 57 percent of the taxpayer money America sent to Ukraine is right now.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), some of the most vocal supporters of audits for the aid, may have a good point . . . unless, of course, Zee can come up with the dough.

seem like a rare duo who actually care what is happening with the funds and/or military equipment.

“We should immediately stop payments to Ukraine and begin a thorough audit of the $60 billion that Joe Biden and Congress have already sent there,” Massie wrote on X back in 2022.

From the days of bagman Hunter Biden, to the present day, Ukraine has been able to avoid accounting for the money we send them and it's only now that this administration is ready to turn off the money spigot.

In 2023, the Pentagon revealed an accounting "error" amounting to $6,200,000,000 that resulted in a surplus that would later be used in aid packages to the Eastern European nation.

Then-Deputy Pentagon press secretary Sabrina Singh announced the error at a presser, noting it took place in fiscal years 2022 and 2023 and was a result of overestimating the value of weapons being sent to Ukraine.

Even the Comedy News Network's Jake Tapper, was shocked when the error was originally reported at $3,000,000,000. He went so far as to call it a "hell of an accounting error” that "provides a lot of fodder to critics ... who say there’s not enough oversight going on.”

One thing is certain: that money went somewhere and did not disappear in a puff of smoke.
