“I’m Jamie Dimon from JPMorgan Chase,” Dimon said when introducing himself to Zelenskyy, according to Bloomberg. “God bless you.”
Zelenskyy is appealing for investor support to assist with Ukraine’s beleaguered economy as over $100 billion in aid from the U.S. and Europe is in a state of limbo. His last appearance at Davos was in 2020, and this marks his first attendance at the World Economic Forum since Russia invaded his country.
The White House is urging Congress to direct more funds to Ukraine; White House budget chief Shalanda Young addressed a December letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson and leaders of the Senate, warning that without congressional action, the United States will run out of resources to keep supporting Ukraine in its war against Russia, Politico reported. President Joe Biden proposed a $106 billion supplemental spending package in October after Hamas attacked Israel, including over $61 billion in emergency funding for Ukraine.
Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Dimon, Blackstone and did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
