The bill, which includes about $60 billion to support Ukraine, has been stalled for weeks in the House as Republican Speaker Johnson has refused to allow a vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Telegraph reported that Cameron and the presumptive Republican presidential candidate also discussed the future of NATO and the Israeli war on Gaza. &nbsp;The visit comes as Trump has rallied against continued support for Ukraine, citing the NATO-led proxy war against Russia as a liability for Washington, arguing Kiev has the potential to \u201cdrop us like a dog.\u201d &nbsp;He has also questioned America\u2019s commitment to NATO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cameron also met key figures across Congress to call on them to unblock the aid package. &nbsp;\u201cSuccess for Ukraine and failure for [Russian President Vladimir] Putin are vital for American and European security,\u201d Cameron said before his trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas waged the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime\u2019s intensified violence against Palestinians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the start of the offensive, the Tel Aviv regime has killed 33,207 Palestinians and injured nearly 75,933 others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British Foreign Secretary David Cameron has met with ex-president Donald Trump in Florida ahead of a visit to Washington to meet his U.S. counterpart as the UK is affirming support&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4910,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[42],"class_list":["post-4909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world"],"authors":[{"term_id":42,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"radio-habana-cuba","display_name":"Radio Habana Cuba","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&r=g","0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4909"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4909\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4911,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4909\/revisions\/4911"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4909"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.radiorebelde.cu\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=4909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
