Visiting Washington, Zelensky meets with Biden at the White House

American President Joe Biden and Ukrainian Volodymyr Zelensky met today at the White House.

During the meeting, Biden is expected to announce the new military aid, worth more than 325 million dollars. It is expected to include more cluster munitions, according to two US officials, marking the second time the US has offered Kiev the controversial weapon.

Notably, in the absence of the package, the US will not provide the Army's tactical missile systems (ATACMS), according to national security adviser Jake Sullivan – despite requests from Ukraine.

Biden looks forward to hearing an in-person perspective on "the fight and the way forward," Sullivan said.

Earlier on Thursday, the Ukrainian president visited Capitol Hill where he described his meeting with US senators on Capitol Hill as a "great dialogue". Zelensky also met with lawmakers from the US House of Representatives.
