President Biden announced a new $325 million military aid package to Ukraine on Thursday during a White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The package includes air defense capabilities, anti-tank weapons, cluster munitions, and more artillery for the war against Russia, Mr. Biden said. Funds will also go to strengthen Ukraine’s infrastructure as winter fast approaches.
The package includes $128 million in new security assistance for Ukraine, as well as $197 million in arms and equipment in previously authorized drawdowns, according to the Biden administration. The package announced Thursday is separate from the $24 billion that the president wants Congress to approve for Ukraine. Included in that request is $13 billion in military aid.
