Ukraine's Zelenskyy To Meet Joe Biden At White House To Discuss Aid Amid Russia's War In Kyiv

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is expected to meet with President Joe Biden at the White House and hold meetings on Capitol Hill next week, according to insiders, Axios reported.

The visit is crucial as the U.S. Congress is currently reviewing President Biden’s proposal to approve over $20 billion in additional aid for Ukraine.

Biden has pledged to back Ukraine “as long as it takes.” However, as the conflict continues, there are growing splits, especially among House Republicans, over the extent of U.S. aid to Kyiv.

The White House has yet to comment on the matter.
