Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will address US senators by video Tuesday during a classified briefing as the Biden administration impresses on Congress the need to approve the White House’s nearly USD106 billion request for funds for the wars in Ukraine, Israel and other security needs.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced Zelenskyy’s appearance after the administration Monday sent an urgent warning about the need to approve the military and economic assistance to Ukraine, saying Kyiv’s war effort to defend itself from Russia’s invasion may grind to a halt without it.
