Biden signs $40B for Ukraine assistance during Asia trip

Associated Press  

SEOUL, South Korea — President Biden on Saturday signed legislation to support Ukraine with an additional $40 billion in U.S. assistance as the Russian invasion approaches its fourth month. There’s also $8 billion in general economic support, $5 billion to address global food shortages that could result from the collapse of Ukrainian agriculture and more than $1 billion to help refugees. The logistics reflect a sense of urgency around continuing U.S. support for Ukraine, but also the overlapping international challenges facing Biden. Biden also signed an unrelated measure, one intended to increase access to baby formula at a time when supplies remain scarce in the United States.
