Part 6/7:
With a focus on accountability, Hawley firmly believes an accounting is essential for every dollar spent in Ukraine thus far. He calls out Congress for failing to initiate an audit of the financial aid, reflecting a wider concern regarding the management of U.S. taxpayer funds. He is adamant that the American public deserves to know how their money has been utilized and warns that corruption could plague foreign aid if left unchecked.
Looking to the Future
As discussions of peace grow, Senator Hawley anticipates that Trump will seek ways to ensure that American taxpayers are compensated for financial commitments made to Ukraine. This could potentially include leveraging negotiations related to energy deals or other agreements involving Ukraine or Russia.
