When Secretary of State Antony Blinken made a surprise visit to Kyiv last week, he not only promised more than $1 billion in new aid to Ukraine but also signaled the Biden administration’s fixation on climate change by reiterating an earlier pledge to provide $520 million to help Ukraine make “cleaner” energy.
Mr. Blinken made the remarks during a joint press conference with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, which focused on various types of support, including humanitarian, military, and infrastructure.
