JAKARTA - United States (US) President Joe Biden apologized to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for the delay earlier this year in passing a new military aid package, which Republican opposition rejected in Congress.
Biden apologized when announcing a new aid package for Ukraine in a bilateral meeting with Zelensky on Friday, June 7.
"You know, you haven't given up, you haven't given up at all, you keep fighting in an incredible way, it's amazing and we're not leaving you," Biden said.
"I apologize for weeks for not knowing what will be passed, in terms of funding, as we struggled to get a draft law that we had to pass that received funding from some of our very conservative members who delayed it, but we completed it," added Biden.
