Ukrainian President Zelenskiy Thanks U.S. House for Passage of Military Aid Bill

In a historic move, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a military aid bill for Ukraine, much to the gratitude of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Zelenskiy took to social media to thank the United States House of Representatives and Speaker Mike Johnson for their support. He emphasized the importance of the bill in preventing the war from expanding, saving countless lives, and strengthening both nations.

The legislative package provides $60.84 billion to Ukraine, with $23 billion allocated to replenish U.S. weapons, stocks, and facilities. The U.S. Senate is expected to approve the bills next week, paving the way for President Joe Biden to sign them into law.

Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal also expressed his gratitude for the passage of the bill, highlighting the leadership and resolve shown by the United States in fighting for peace and security.

The passage of the military aid bill signifies a significant step towards ending the conflict in Ukraine and strengthening the bond between the two nations. The support from the United States is seen as a crucial resource for victory and reconstruction in the war-torn country.

The world watches as Ukraine and the United States work together to bring an end to the war and restore peace in the region.
