Biden, Jr. spoke today with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine to discuss U.S. support for Ukraine in its courageous defense against Russian aggression. President Biden updated President Zelenskyy on U.S. efforts to surge support to Ukraine and strengthen its position vis-à-vis Russia. Over the past several months, the United States has delivered hundreds of thousands of artillery rounds, thousands of rockets, hundreds of armored vehicles, and other critical capabilities to Ukrainian forces as they defend their freedom from Russian aggression. In addition, today the United States announced a comprehensive sanctions package against the Russian energy sector, which builds upon the unprecedented sanctions regime that the United States has put in place against the Russian economy since 2022. President Zelenskyy expressed his appreciation for this surge in support and briefed President Biden on his strategic planning in the war. It is now clear that President Putin’s war against Ukraine has been a disaster for Russia. Due to the Ukrainian people’s courage and resolve, and with the support of the United States, Russia has failed to achieve any of its strategic objectives in Ukraine. When President Putin started this war, he thought he would capture Kyiv in a matter of days. Nearly three years later, Kyiv is still free. Russia wanted to destroy the Ukrainian nation. Today, Ukraine remains a free and vibrant democracy. Russia wanted to grind down Ukraine’s army. Now, that army is stronger and more capable than ever. And Russia wanted to break NATO. Instead, NATO is larger, stronger, and more united than at any time in its history. President Biden underscored the importance of continuing to support Ukraine in its fight for freedom so that the Ukrainian people can secure the just and lasting peace that they deserve.### Next Post: Readout of President Biden’s Call with Prime Minister Meloni of Italy Readout of President Biden’s Call with Prime Minister Meloni of Italy January 10, 2025 •Statements and Releases Next Post Stay ConnectedSign UpEmail Address* RequiredZIP CodePlease leave blank.We'll be in touch with the latest information on how President Biden and his administration are working for the American people, as well as ways you can get involved and help our country build back better.
