"The Biden administration is expected to announce a roughly $2 billion military assistance package for Ukraine on Wednesday—one that includes Patriot missile systems and misleadingly named "precision bomb kits"—as the war-ravaged nation's president visits Washington, D.C. in his first trip outside of his country since the start of Russia's invasion 10 months ago.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is set to meet with U.S. President Joe Biden at the White House to accept the latest aid package, which comes on top of the nearly $45 billion in assistance Congress is poised to approve as part of its year-end omnibus spending bill. Later Wednesday, Zelenskyy is expected to speak to the press and deliver a primetime address to a joint session of Congress.

During a background call with reporters late Tuesday, a senior Biden administration official called the planned shipment of long-flawed Patriot missile systems—which Moscow has deemed a provocation—a "critical" step to "defend the Ukrainian people against Russia's barbaric attacks on Ukraine's critical infrastructure."
