The outgoing, Republican-controlled House of Representatives last approved aid for Ukraine in April including the authority for Joe Biden to transfer billions of dollars in weapons from US stocks. Of the weapons transfer authority passed in April, $4.3bn remains, in addition to $2.8bn worth of transfers lawmakers approved in previous spending measures and $2bn in funding for the purchase of new weapons from industry. In total, that $9bn in military assistance would be a significant boost to Ukraine’s stores.

Strong and unwavering US leadership is vital for the world and for a just peace.”
