President Joe Biden has authorized an additional $200 million in aid to Ukraine for training and weapons.

In a March 12 memorandum to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Biden directed that up to $200 million should be designated for Ukraine’s defense, with the funds allocated through the Foreign Assistance Act. The funds would cover weapons and other defense items, as well as military services, education, and training.
