U.S. President Joe Biden met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on May 21, on the sidelines of the G-7 summit of world leaders in Hiroshima, Japan.
At a press conference following their bilateral meeting, Biden announced the United States would provide Ukraine with a new military aid package of up to $375 million.
“The United States continues to help Ukraine respond, recover, and rebuild. We are also supporting peace,” Biden said on May 21 at his first face-to-face meeting with Zelenskyy since he made a surprise visit to Kyiv in February.
