Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky To Meet President Biden Amid Growing War Concerns

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky will be meeting the President of the United States, Joe Biden in the US next week. 

Both leaders would also be attending the meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. 

Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Ukraine last week to announce the newest aid package amounting to more than $1bn (£800bn). 

Mr Zelensky is also reportedly planning to hold meetings with other visiting world leaders after Biden asked Congress to send another $24bn to Ukraine. 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed on Thursday that he plans to sit down with his Ukrainian counterpart on the sidelines of the UN meetings.

Mr Biden and Mr Zelensky last held direct in-person talks in Lithuania in July during a Nato summit. Before that, they met at a G7 summit in Japan in May.

An analyst has suggested that the poor Ukraine offensive could make supporters back away as they can not see how their money is being used. 

A growing number of US Republicans – including several running for president in 2024 have voiced opposition to continued assistance to Ukraine
