US President Joe Biden marked Ukraine’s Independence Day on Wednesday with a new security assistance package of around $3 billion in military aid to Kiev in its war with Russia.
It is the largest tranche of support for Kiev since its invasion of Russia six months ago, and comes as US officials warn that Russia appears to be planning to launch further attacks on Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure and government facilities in the coming days.
“The United States of America is committed to supporting the people of Ukraine as they continue to fight to defend their sovereignty,” Biden said in a statement announcing the package.
In total, the United States has committed approximately $10.6 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the Biden administration.
Since 2014, the US has committed more than $12.6 billion in security assistance to Ukraine.
