Biden administration plans significant aid for Ukraine before Trump takes office
The Biden administration plans to send significant aid to Ukraine before President-elect Donald Trump takes office in January. Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that the U.S. will provide as much support as possible during this transition period. Blinken emphasized the need for NATO countries to ensure Ukraine has the resources to continue fighting or negotiate from a strong position. The U.S. remains the largest military aid provider to Ukraine amid ongoing conflict with Russia. On the ground, Russia has intensified its attacks, launching a major assault on Kyiv and other regions. North Korean troops are reportedly assisting Russian forces, which are preparing for a counteroffensive in the Kursk area.
