U.S. President Joe Biden on Wednesday said he expects U.S. aid to Ukraine to continue without interruption despite reservations expressed by Republicans who appear prepared to assume control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

“That is my expectation,” Biden told a news conference at the White House when asked if U.S. aid to Ukraine would continue uninterrupted.

“And by the way, we’ve not given Ukraine a blank check,” Biden said, saying Washington had rejected to send some military equipment or support requested by Ukrainian officials, including U.S. planes.
