US President Joe Biden vows to step up support for Ukraine and hails its resistance to Russian invaders as he welcomes Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House.
“We’re going to continue to strengthen Ukraine’s ability to defend itself, particularly air defense,” Biden tells Zelensky, who thanks the US leader “for your big support.”
Zelensky tells Biden of the “appreciation from my heart” for US support, and thanks the US president, Congress and the “ordinary people” of America.
