The White House has announced a $2.5 billion aid package to Ukraine and pledged to "continue surging" aid to get it to the authorities in Kyiv "as quickly as possible."

The White House said in a statement on December 30 that the pledge includes an additional $1.25 billion drawdown package for the Ukrainian military and a $1.22 billion Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) package.

"I've directed my Administration to continue surging as much assistance to Ukraine as quickly as possible -- including drawing down older U.S. equipment for Ukraine, rapidly delivering it to the battlefield, and then revitalizing the U.S. defense industrial base to modernize and replenish our stockpiles with new weapons," outgoing President Joe Biden said in the statement.
