Details: The source said that Zelenskyy will meet with Biden at the White House after talks with world leaders at the UN General Assembly in New York, which is further confirmation of the Ukrainian leader’s upcoming overseas visit.
In addition, as The Washington Post reported the day before, Zelenskyy will also visit the US Congress to get lawmakers to approve US$24 billion in additional aid for Ukraine.
Some on the right wing of the US Republican Party, led by Donald Trump, claim that the United States is giving Ukraine too much aid and should focus on domestic priorities.
