US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and British Foreign Secretary David Cameron depart at the end of a joint press conference at the State Department – Copyright AFP Mandel NGAN<\/small><\/em><\/p>\nBritish Foreign Secretary David Cameron pleaded Tuesday for US Republicans to approve billions of dollars in military support for Ukraine as he made his case directly to Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
The former Conservative prime minister had dinner Monday with Trump, the ex-president and Republican challenger to Joe Biden in November, at his Florida estate before heading to Washington.<\/p>\n
Speaking the next day alongside Biden\u2019s top diplomat Antony Blinken, Cameron described his meeting with Trump as \u201cprivate\u201d but said he raised issues including \u201cthe future of NATO,\u201d the Western alliance which the Republican mogul has often criticized as unfair to the United States.<\/p>\n
Cameron will also meet lawmakers in Washington where he said he would call for the Republican-led House of Representatives to move ahead on Biden\u2019s request for some $60 billion in new assistance to Ukraine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI come here with no intention to lecture anybody, or tell anybody what to do or get in the way of the process of politics,\u201d Cameron said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just come here as a great friend and believer in this country, and a believer that it\u2019s profoundly in your interest,\u201d he said, \u201cto release this money.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere will be people in Tehran, in Pyongyang, in Beijing, looking at how we stand by our allies, how we help them, how we stop this illegal and unprovoked aggression, and working out whether we are committed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Trump campaign said that the two discussed \u201cthe upcoming US and UK elections, policy matters specific to Brexit, the need for NATO countries to meet their defense spending requirements and ending the killing in Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ukraine has warned that it risks losing ground and it is already rationing ammunition as Russia, sensing an advantage more than two years into its invasion, ramps up attacks.<\/p>\n
US House Speaker Mike Johnson said last month he was looking at a \u201cnumber of avenues\u201d on Ukraine aid, which has already been approved by the Senate, controlled by Biden\u2019s Democratic Party.<\/p>\n
Johnson, holding a razor-thin Republican majority, has previously refused to allow a vote as he faces the wrath of far-right lawmakers.<\/p>\n
Blinken said it was \u201cimperative\u201d for the House to act now that it is back in session.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe look to see that brought before the House and to get a vote as quickly as possible,\u201d Blinken said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
