US President Joe Biden
US President Joe Biden has signed a $95 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
The president said the US would quickly send new weapons and equipment to Ukraine to help fend off Russian advances.
He spoke a day after the US Senate approved the aid package following months of congressional gridlock.
Ukraine has recently stepped up its calls for Western assistance as Russia makes steady gains in its invasion.
Included in the package is $61 billion in military aid for Ukraine.
It passed the Senate in a bipartisan vote of 79 to 18.
Tuesday evening's approval came after the measure passed the US House of Representatives on Saturday.
