The US President, Joe Biden, said on Tuesday that the United States will “start sending weapons and equipment to Ukraine this very week”, after the US Senate confirmed the House’s vote for long-awaited aid to Ukraine. The leader of the White House announced that he will promulgate the law as soon as it reaches his desk.

“I will sign this bill and address the American people as soon as it arrives on my desk tomorrow,” he said in a press release from the US presidency.

The US Senate adopted, on Tuesday, a huge package of military and economic assistance for Ukraine, the result of months of extremely tense and laborious negotiations in Congress.

The $95 billion aid plan, which includes funds for Israel, Taiwan and an ultimatum for the TikTok platform, received broad support in the US Senate.
