U.S. President Joe Biden made an unannounced visit to Ukraine’s capital on Monday to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a gesture of solidarity that comes days before the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of its neighbour.
Biden delivered remarks and met with Zelenskyy at Mariinsky Palace in Kyiv to announce an additional half-billion dollars in U.S. assistance and to reassure Ukraine of American and allied support as the conflict continues.
“One year later, Kyiv stands. And Ukraine stands. Democracy stands. The Americans stand with you, and the world stands with you,” Biden said.
If I were Ukraine I’d be looking to wrap things up quickly as this Biden declaration foretells abandonment.
