Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy returned home after meetings with U.S. leaders, including President Joe Biden and Republican candidate Donald Trump. The Biden administration pledged over $8 billion in military aid, ensuring support until a new U.S. administration takes office. Zelenskyy's visit sparked controversy, particularly among Republicans, after he toured an ammunition plant in Pennsylvania. Despite some tensions, he presented his vision for Ukraine's victory to both Trump and Biden, aiming for bipartisan support. The U.S. continues to restrict long-range weapons for Ukraine, fearing escalation in the conflict. Zelenskyy hopes for a response to his victory plan during the upcoming Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting in Germany on October 12.
