The White House is sending another $800 million in military assistance to Ukraine to equip forces to counter the new Russian offensive in the Donbas, President Joe Biden announced Thursday.
This latest batch of weapons—the third $800 million package that the White House has sent to Ukraine since March 16—has nearly emptied the fund Congress authorized on March 11 to support Ukraine. Biden said he will send a supplemental budget request to Capitol Hill next week so the United States can continue providing weapons as the war stretches into its second month.
