US Senate failed to pass a procedural vote on a bill that combined migration policy reform with funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

The US Senate did not receive enough votes for a procedural vote on a bill to strengthen migration policy, which included additional funds for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

Scholz will discuss continued support for Ukraine during his visit to the US, including EU funding of €50 billion until 2027 and €7 billion in German military aid for 2024

Total military assistance to Ukraine totals almost 30 billion euros, including past allocations and future commitments

The U.S. Senate will hold a procedural vote on Feb. 8 on whether to advance a foreign aid package that includes funds for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan but no reforms to border policy.

The decision to separate the aid package from the border bill was made after Senate Republicans blocked a highly anticipated bipartisan agreement earlier that day.

The package includes $60 billion for Ukraine, $14.1 billion in aid to Israel, $9.2 billion in humanitarian assistance, and $4.8 billion to support regional partners in the Indo-Pacific region.

Senate Democrats announced they will attempt to pass a $95 billion aid package focused on Ukraine and Israel on Thursday, after the previous day's vote failed.
