Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the United States and Ukraine are “working on a bilateral security agreement” to provide Ukraine support for 10 years. “Our goal is to make this agreement the strongest of all. We are discussing the specific foundations of our security and cooperation. We are also working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years‚ including armed support‚ financial‚ political‚ and joint arms production‚” Zelensky stated. “The agreement should be truly exemplary and reflect the strength of American leadership. I am grateful to both our team and the team of the American side for the progress in drafting the agreement‚” he continued. Zelensky announces that Ukraine is working on a security agreement with the U.S. that will fix levels of support for the next 10 years. The $61 billion was just the beginning.

Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) for the passage of the foreign aid package to send $61 billion to Ukraine. “We are not losing a single day for Ukraine – I have just spoken with Hakeem Jeffries‚ the leader of the Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives. I thanked him and all the congressmen for their support of our country and personal leadership in advancing a new package of assistance to Ukraine. We are interacting with our partners at all levels to achieve the level of efficiency in assistance that is needed not only to hold our positions‚ but also to disrupt Russia’s war plans‚” Zelensky said. “We are still waiting for the supplies promised to Ukraine – we expect exactly the volume and content of supplies that can change the situation on the battlefield in the interests of Ukraine. And it is important that every agreement we have reached is implemented – everything that will yield practical results on the battlefield and boost the morale of everyone on the frontline. In a conversation with Mr. Jeffries‚ I emphasized the need for Patriot systems‚ they are needed as soon as possible‚” he continued. “Permanent funding for Ukraine is exactly what they want and Mike Johnson will give it to them. Peace is not an option for them because it doesn’t fit the government appropriations war business and economic model‚ which is vile and disgusting‚” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) commented. “They’re plan is keep funding the proxy war with Russia in Ukraine and when that doesn’t work‚ after all the Ukrainian men have been slaughtered‚ next they will put American troops on the ground. Johnson will do whatever Biden/Schumer want in order to keep the Speaker’s gavel in his hand‚ but he has completely sold out the Republican voters who gave us the majority. His days as Speaker are numbered‚” she continued. Permanent funding for Ukraine is exactly what they want and Mike Johnson will give it to them.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (@RepMTG) April 28‚ 2024 Per Breitbart: Zelensky added that during his conversation with Jeffries‚ he had “emphasized the need for Patriot systems.” This is not the first time Zelensky has begged for more American-made Patriot missile systems to be sent to Ukraine. Currently‚ Ukraine has three Patriot systems‚ one from the U.S. and two reportedly from Germany‚ according to the Washington Post. On Friday‚ Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin revealed that the U.S. would be sending Ukraine more Patriot systems as part of an additional $6 billion foreign aid package. “Earlier this month‚ Politico reported that NATO allies were working to ‘Trump-proof’ weapons for Ukraine‚” David Sacks wrote. “Reminder: last year I wrote about how the administration’s goal was to turn Ukraine into a Forever War‚” he added. Reminder: last year I wrote about how the administration’s goal was to turn Ukraine into a Forever War. https://t.co/pPzCQpBnyW — David Sacks (@DavidSacks) April 28‚ 2024 From Zelensky’s statement: Next week there will be quite a lot of international communication‚ both public and non-public. We remember what this year should bring us in the political sense‚ in particular the result with the European Union. Ukraine has fulfilled all the necessary conditions for the actual start of accession negotiations‚ and now it is up to the EU side to fulfill its obligations. We continue preparations for the first inaugural Peace Summit in June‚ and our team‚ along with the teams of our key partners‚ is working to make the Summit truly global. We can say for sure that all continents will be represented – different parts of the world‚ different views on global development. But all of them share the same recognition that the UN Charter and basic international conventions are binding documents for every country in the world‚ including a country like Russia‚ where madness prevails. The world majority must force Russia into peace – and it can do this. It is in June that the path to a just peace can begin. We are also preparing for the NATO Summit to be held this summer. A strong political signal is needed – the Alliance should not be afraid of its own strength or shy away from its own foundations – every country that shares common values and is willing to actually defend them deserves an invitation to join the Alliance. And our unwavering gratitude to the warriors – to all the Defense and Security Forces of Ukraine‚ to each and every one of them at the front‚ at combat posts‚ on combat missions. Kharkiv region‚ Donetsk direction‚ all the southern directions. I am grateful to every soldier and commander who is doing everything to destroy the occupiers – this is needed the most.

Horrific twisters pummeled the state of Oklahoma over the weekend and caused catastrophic damage. “Tornadoes killed four people in Oklahoma‚ including an infant‚ and left thousands without power Sunday after a destructive outbreak of severe weather flattened buildings in the heart of one rural town and injured at least 100 people across the state‚” the Associated Press reports. The town of Sulphur‚ home to approximately 5‚000 people‚ saw extensive damage to businesses and homes. “Most businesses in downtown Sulphur were completely destroyed by an EF-3 tornado on Saturday night during a severe weather outbreak. FOX Weather Correspondent Brandy Campbell said the situation is dangerous because buildings continue to collapse two days after the tornado‚” FOX Weather writes. From the Associated Press: More than 20‚000 people were still without electricity hours after tornadoes began late Saturday night. The destruction was extensive in Sulphur‚ a town of about 5‚000 people‚ where a tornado crumpled many downtown buildings‚ tossed cars and buses and sheared the roofs off houses across a 15-block radius. “You just can’t believe the destruction‚” Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt said during a visit to the hard-hit town. “It seems like every business downtown has been destroyed.” Stitt said about 30 people were injured in Sulphur‚ including some who were in a bar as the tornado struck. Hospitals across the state reported about 100 injuries‚ including people apparently cut or struck by debris‚ according to the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management. An infant was among those killed‚ Hughes County Emergency Management Director Mike Dockrey told Oklahoma television station KOCO.

AstraZeneca‚ for the first time‚ admitted its experimental COVID-19 shot can cause a potentially deadly side effect. The UK-based COVID-19 jab manufacturer acknowledged in legal documents submitted to the United Kingdom High Court that its shot “can‚ in very rare cases‚ cause TTS.” TTS stands for thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome – a medical condition characterized by blood clot formation combined with a low platelet count. “The admittance‚ as per the Telegraph‚ could pave the way for a multi-million-pound legal payout‚” WION reports. Daily Mail reports that dozens of families allege they‚ or their loved ones‚ were “maimed or killed” by AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 injection. “Lawyers representing the claimants believe some of the cases could be worth up to £20m in compensation‚” the outlet noted. AstraZeneca finally admits for the first time that the COVID Vax is unsafe‚ results in BLOOD-CLOTTING https://t.co/KqVGAmbTDO pic.twitter.com/uktC1jDT1l — Gabrielle Cuccia (@its_gabbygabs) April 29‚ 2024 Per Daily Mail: The complication – listed as a potential side effect of the jab – has previously been called vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT). AstraZeneca’s admission could lead to pay-outs on a case-by-case basis. Although accepted as a potential side effect for two years‚ it marks the first time the company has admitted in court that its jab can cause the condition‚ The Telegraph reports. Taxpayers will foot the bill of any potential settlement because of an indemnity deal AstraZeneca struck with the Government in the darkest days of Covid to get the jabs produced as quickly as possible while the country was paralysed by lockdowns. It comes just days after the firm reported a revenue exceeding £10billion in the first quarter of 2024‚ a rise of 19 per cent. Company officials stated it had enjoyed a ‘very strong start’ to the year. Breaking: AstraZeneca admits Its for the first time ever that their vaccines can cause side effects. The vaccine has also killed several people and this could be a multimillion or billion dollar lawsuit #mRNA. pic.twitter.com/9vXEI92NhP — Erin Elizabeth Health Nut News (@unhealthytruth) April 28‚ 2024 Per WION: The first case against the company was lodged by Jamie Scott‚ father of two‚ who was 44 when he received the vaccine. Ten days after the jab‚ Scott complained of tiredness and started vomiting. Soon after‚ his speech got impaired‚ and he had to be taken to the hospital‚ where physicians diagnosed him with a suspected case of Vaccine-induced Immune Thrombocytopenia and Thrombosis (VITT). He survived the ordeal but was left with a permanent brain injury. Alongside Scott‚ 51 cases have been lodged against the company‚ with victims and grieving relatives seeking damages estimated to be worth up to £100 million ($125.36 million). Lawyers for the pharma giant‚ however‚ in a letter of response sent in May last year contended “we do not accept that TTS is caused by the vaccine at a generic level”. However‚ in the document submitted in February this year‚ AstraZeneca said‚ “It is admitted that the AZ vaccine can‚ in very rare cases‚ cause TTS. The causal mechanism is not known.” “Further‚ TTS can also occur in the absence of the AZ vaccine (or any vaccine). Causation in any individual case will be a matter for expert evidence.” However‚ lawyers for the victims argue that AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine is “defective” and that its efficacy has been “vastly overstated”. AstraZeneca has strongly denied these claims. AstraZeneca faces up to £255million compensation bill for 'defective' Covid vaccine after pharma titan admitted it DOES cause ultra-rare blood clot side effect – as wife of victim says 'we're not going to give up' https://t.co/FFlHBVuPh2 pic.twitter.com/fFP8CBqMSR — Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) April 29‚ 2024 According to Daily Mail‚ researchers investigating the side effect theorize “it occurs due to the modified cold virus lurking in the jab acting like a magnet to a type of protein in the blood called platelet factor 4. Platelet factor 4 is normally used by the body to promote coagulation in the blood‚ in case of injury. Then‚ in rare instances‚ the body’s immune system confuses platelet factor 4 with a foreign invader and releases antibodies to attack it in case of ‘mistaken identity’. These antibodies then clump together with platelet factor 4‚ forming the blood clots that have become so heavily linked with the jab.”
