Where is the $16 billion? 'Greedy' Zelensky asks what happened to the US aid that was promised

Ukraine is demanding more money from the West, with President Volodymyr Zelensky claiming that the United States has failed to deliver $16 billion in previously promised aid. Following Spain's announcement of $490 million in military assistance, Zelensky says Kyiv must continue fighting to secure the outstanding funds. However, he has not identified the agreements behind the alleged shortfall or clarified whether Congress formally approved the money. Ukraine Oversight puts total U.S. appropriations for Kyiv at around $196 billion since 2022. Meanwhile, Donald Trump wants NATO allies to shoulder more costs, while accusing Zelensky of exploiting American taxpayers and obstructing peace efforts.
