U.S. President Joe Biden

The United States on November 3 announced a new package of weapons and equipment to support Ukraine. The package provides up to $125 million of arms and equipment authorized under previously directed drawdowns, the U.S. State Department said in a news release. The Defense Department said it was also providing $300 million to strengthen Ukraine's air defenses. "Until Russia ends this war by withdrawing its forces from Ukraine and stopping its brutal attacks, the United States and the coalition we have built of more than 50 countries will continue to stand with Ukraine," Secretary of State Antony Blinken said.
