TL;DR Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet with lawmakers in Congress to urgently seek US assistance for Ukraine's military, which is facing a critical shortage of weaponry and funds. Despite Congress having allocated over $111 billion to support Ukraine, President Biden's request for an additional $61 billion has not been fulfilled. Republican lawmakers, particularly in the House of Representatives, have expressed reluctance to fund Ukraine's war effort without major changes to US immigration policy. Zelensky warns that Ukraine's chances of victory against Russia hang in the balance, and without further aid, the country may struggle to pay government workers.
