Ukraine's Prime Minister, Denys Shmyhal, warns of a potential Third World War if Ukraine loses its conflict with Russia, urging swift passage of a long-stalled $61bn foreign aid bill by the US Congress. The aid includes crucial support for Kyiv amidst escalating tensions. Congressional impasse has hindered Ukraine's ability to combat Russian forces, leading to battlefield retreats and mounting casualties. President Biden pledges immediate enactment of the aid package to reinforce US support. Ukraine's dependency on Western assistance highlights the urgent need for international solidarity in the face of geopolitical turmoil.
