Economy

President Joe Biden announced a new $225 million aid package for Ukraine during a meeting with his counterpart, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, and pledged continued US support as Kyiv looks to turn the tide in the war with Russia.

Biden said Friday part of the aid package would help Ukraine rebuild its electrical grid, which has been decimated by Russian attacks. It also includes munitions, artillery systems and air defense interceptors to repel Russia’s assault at the epicenter of fighting in Kharkiv, according to the State Department.
