Biden Announces $8 Billion in Military Aid to Ukraine During Zelensky Visit
ai generated text
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is currently in the US, meeting with US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to discuss his "victory plan" against Russia. The visit comes amid a row with Donald Trump and the Republican party, who were angered by Zelenskyy's visit to an arms factory in Biden's hometown. Zelenskyy has stated that decisive action is needed now to end Russian aggression against Ukraine, and has called for more US military aid to support his country. Harris has expressed unwavering support for Ukraine in the war against Russia.
Ukraine will not give up fighting this war. They will not stop defending. It would just be that much harder.
Nearly 40 percent of the population have a close friend or family member that is living under the repression of Russian occupation, so it's something that is extremely personal.
We will use this assistance in the most effective and transparent way possible to achieve our main common goal: a victorious Ukraine, a just and lasting peace, and transatlantic security.
Decisive action now could hasten the just end of Russian aggression against Ukraine next year.
President Biden is determined to provide Ukraine with the support it needs to win.
These proposals are the same as those of [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, and let us be clear, they are not proposals for peace. Instead, they are proposals for surrender, which is dangerous and unacceptable.
That is why, today, I am announcing a surge in security assistance for Ukraine and a series of additional actions to help Ukraine win this war.
Ukraine will prevail, and we'll continue to stand by you every step of the way.
They beat Hitler, they beat Napoleon - that's what they do, they fight.
Every time Zelensky comes to the United States, he walks away with $100 billion.
Western governments have been so preoccupied with not breaking the Kremlin's red lines that we've forgotten to draw up our own.
