Former U.S. President Donald Trump criticized the intention of U.S. lawmakers to pass a bill that would provide $ 40 billion in aid to Ukraine despite the U.S. infant milk crisis.
In a statement released by the Save America PAC, Trump said Democrats have “sent an additional $ 40 billion to Ukraine, but American parents are having a hard time even feeding their children.”
Trump called the baby food shortage in the United States a “national disgrace.”
“It is inconceivable that in 2022 American families will not be able to buy milk substitutes for their children,” he said.
Earlier this week, the U.S. House of Representatives passed nearly $ 40 billion in aid to Ukraine.
Baby food shortages are estimated at 40-50%, major retail stores are starting to take up sales, and there is a debate in the political establishment over whether to prioritize American children over the children of undocumented immigrants. .
The White House said President Joe Biden has talked to retailers and manufacturers to help families buy infant formula.
