Representative Don Bacon (R-NEB) said on Tuesday that Trump hopes to be temporarily suspended on foreign aid.
In an interview with CNN's “coalition”, bacon emphasized the importance of US assistance to allies, including Ukraine and Taiwan.
“I need to be temporary,” said Bacon when asked if he was worried about freezing foreign aid. “Because we need to respond to it, just as Russia has invaded Ukraine, we cannot freeze the promised spending promised to Ukraine.”
“So I hope this is temporary,” he added.
Trump signed a presidential decree on the first day of his inauguration, which will stop the new foreign development aid in the United States for three months, and instructed a review of a foreign support program as lined up with the “first American” paralyshol policy approach. 。
The order included the exemption of the Secretary of State to give up the rules of “specific programs.”

Bacon said on Tuesday that he wanted to see Ukraine and Taiwan will be added to the exceptional list.
“We know that we will prioritize. We are grateful that the government did not freeze Israel's assistance,” said Bacon. “I want them to do the same thing with Ukraine's assistance and Taiwan, so Taiwan needs to be apt to continue our help, so another is another. As an example, you can prevent China from entering Taiwan.
