US President Joe Biden has apologized to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for delays in providing American military assistance to Ukraine. The apology came during a meeting between the two leaders in Paris, where they also attended ceremonies marking the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. According to some reports, Biden specifically apologized for a monthslong congressional holdup in approving military aid, which allowed Russia to gain ground on the battlefield. Despite the delay, Biden emphasized that the US is committed to supporting Ukraine and announced an additional $225 million in military aid. He also stated that the American people are standing by Ukraine for the long haul.

1. You need normally between five, six months. So by the end of the year there will be pilots. The pilots will be trained in France.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy
Ukraine Government
1. Your decisions have had [a] positive influence. I don't want to share everything, all the details, with the press, sorry.
2. A moment where we can now write history the way we need it. Or we can become victims of history as it suits ... our enemy.
3. It's very important that in this unity, United States of America, all American people stay with Ukraine like it was during World War II.
4. It's very important that you stay with us. This bipartisan support with the Congress, it's very important that in this unity, United States of America, all American people stay with Ukraine, like it was during world war two. United States helped to save human lives, to save Europe.
5. The inaugural peace summit could become a format that would bring closer a just end to this war. I am grateful for all you are already doing and it is a lot. But for a fair peace, more must be done.
6. How the United States helped to save human lives, to save Europe. And we count on your continuing support in standing with us shoulder to shoulder.
7. Can this war end on the lines that exist now? No. Because there are no lines for evil: not 80 years ago, not now. And if someone tries to draw temporary lines, it will only give a pause before a new war.
8. Dear France, I thank you for standing by our side as we defend life.
9. We count on your continuing support in staying with us shoulder to shoulder.

1. They're asking us to stay true to what America stands for.
2. Some of our very conservative members [of Congress] were holding it up. But we got it done, finally.
3. I apologize for those weeks of not knowing what's going to happen in terms of funding.
4. You haven't bowed down, you haven't yielded at all, you continue to fight in a way that is … just remarkable. We are not going to walk away from you.
5. I apologize for the weeks of not knowing what was going to pass, in terms of funding, because we had trouble getting the bill that we had to pass, that had the money in it.
