Original Note:
In the U.S., the president can't shift funds set by Congress, e.g., aid to Ukraine, without approval. Congress controls finances as per the Constitution (Art. I, Sec. 9, Cl. 7). Bypassing this may result in legal problems & Impoundment Act breaches. https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S9-C7-1/ALDE_00001095/#:~:text=Article%20I%2C%20Section%209%2C%20Clause,published%20from%20time%20to%20time.
