US and Ukrainian presidents Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelenskyy discussed the ongoing work of the United States, its allies and partners to provide military, economic and humanitarian aid to Ukraine and "severe costs on Russia for its brutal aggression against Ukraine."
As the White House reports, "The United States is working around the clock to fulfill the main security assistance requests by Ukraine, the critical effects those weapons have had on the conflict, and continued efforts by the United States with allies and partners to identify additional capabilities to help the Ukrainian military defend its country. In addition, President Biden informed President Zelenskyy that the United States intends to provide the Ukrainian government with $500 million in direct budgetary aid. He also reviewed the additional sanctions and humanitarian assistance announced last week. President Zelenskyy updated President Biden on the status of Ukraine’s negotiations with Russia."
