US House passes Ukraine aid bill with Russia sanctions, defying Trump

The US House of Representatives passed a bill to provide security aid to Ukraine and impose new sanctions on Russia. The vote was a clear break with President Donald Trump, who has opposed such measures, and also went against the wishes of Republican leaders in the House.

This marks the second time in a week that the House has defied Trump on a major foreign policy issue. The bill now moves to the Senate, where its fate remains uncertain. The legislation reflects ongoing bipartisan support in Congress for Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression, despite divisions within the Republican Party.
