Zelensky to Meet Biden Amid Stalled Ukraine Aid Package

Congress debates over $110 billion aid package as U.S. set to run out of funding for Ukraine by year's end.

• Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet with U.S. President Joe Biden at the White House on Tuesday, marking his third visit to Washington since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
• The meeting comes as a $110 billion aid package for Ukraine, which includes funding for other national security priorities, remains stalled in Congress due to debates over U.S. immigration policy and border security.
• Congress has already allocated $111 billion to assist Ukraine, but the U.S. is expected to run out of funding to send weapons and assistance to Ukraine by the end of the year.
• Secretary of State Antony Blinken has emphasized the urgent need for funding, warning that without it, Russian President Vladimir Putin will be able to move forward with impunity.
• Despite the urgency, some lawmakers have expressed hesitation over continuing to support aid to Ukraine, questioning what additional aid would accomplish that previous funding has not.
