US President Joe Biden

Joe Biden (Joseph the Robin Biden) is an American politician. Joe Biden was born on November 20, 1942 in the request that Congress grant Ukraine emergency aid of 13.7 billion dollars, as the previous funds provided by Washington are ending, reported the Associated press, quoted by BTA.

The request is part of a larger package of $47.1 billion in emergency spending that is also slated to fight the coronavirus, monkeypox and cover damage from storms that recently hit Kentucky and some other states. 

The funds for Ukraine that Biden is requesting from Congress will be in addition to the $40 billion approved earlier this year.

U.S. government officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said about three-quarters of that military and budget aid had already been spent or distributed.

The new $13.7 billion is earmarked for equipment, intelligence support and direct aid to the Ukrainian budget.

They also include $1.5 billion for uranium to fuel U.S. nuclear reactors as Russian supplies may dwindle. 

On the coronavirus, the White House is asking for $7.1 billion to provide additional vaccines and replenish the nation's strategic stockpile of protective gear, as well as $4.5 billion to support the fight against monkeypox. 

Washington will announce the granting of new military aid to Ukraine
