The United States has announced nearly $6 billion in military and budget assistance to Ukraine amid escalating Russian attacks.
President Joe Biden's package includes $2.5 billion in security aid and $3.4 billion in budget support, crucial for Ukraine's government operations.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen emphasized that continued aid is vital for Ukraine's sovereignty and efficient functioning of its government.
The funding is part of approximately $175 billion in total assistance committed by the US since Russia's invasion began nearly three years ago.
Biden’s actions to bolster Ukraine come as President-elect Donald Trump questions the level of financial support and seeks to reshape US involvement in the conflict.

The latest disbursement includes almost $6 billion in aid to Ukraine, with a focus on military and budget support, to counteract increasing Russian aggression. President Biden's administration is diligently working to provide these funds before Trump assumes office, raising concerns about the future of US support for Kyiv amidst his uncertain stance on military involvement.
