Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to visit Washington next week to meet President Biden at the White House and hold meetings on Capitol Hill during his trip to the U.S. for the UN General Assembly, according to two sources.

Why it matters: Congress is currently weighing President Biden’s request to approve more than $20 billion in additional aid for Ukraine.

Biden has vowed to support Ukraine “as long as it takes.” But as the war drags on, there are growing divisions, particularly among House Republicans, over how much aid the U.S. should continue to give Kyiv.

Details: Zelensky is expected in Washington on Thursday, according to the sources.

His trip to New York for the UN General Assembly was already known, but his stops in Washington have not been publicly announced.

The trip to Washington was first reported by Punchbowl News.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
