To Sen. Chris Coons, Chairman of US Senate Appropriations SFOPs Subcommittee CC: Sen. Marco Rubio, member of US Senate Appropriations SFOPs Subcommittee CC: Rep. Mario Diaz Balart, Chair of the US House Appropriations SFOPs Subcommittee: I am writing with regard to the FY 2024 State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs appropriations bill. A poignant detail in the bill, is that during the height of the invasion in Ukraine, out of all of the foreign countries being granted aid in the appropriations bill, only aid to Ukraine will receive a stringent "cost-matching" cap. The restrictive "cost-matching" framework in the policy would cap funding for US non-defense aid to Ukraine at 50% from that of the total amount of non-defense funds contributed to Ukraine from all sources.

 written by Alexandra Zakhvatayev PETITION for NATO  to Adopt the Kyiv Security Compact Russia's brutal invasion in Ukraine has created global instability and threatened security in the European and North American continents.   In 1994,  Russia, the U.S. and the U.K. signed the "Budapest Memorandum" which required Ukraine to give up it's nuclear weapons to Russia in exchange for "loose assurances" instead of concrete security guarantees. Recently, former President Bill Clinton said he regretted this decision.  We regret it too. If Ukraine was not pressured to transfer it's 1900 nuclear warheads to Russia for reasons which were not actually imminent, the country probably could have avoided massive devastation and a worldwide humanitarian crisis, and the world would probably not face the most dangerous nuclear threat on the planet which is posed by Russia today.
