(Voice of America) On Monday, White House officials held a five-hour meeting with technology and defense industry leaders. The discussion focused on providing Ukraine with advanced U.S. equipment, such as unmanned aerial systems and demining gear, to bolster its defense against Russia.
The meeting, led by Jake Sullivan, aimed to explore new technological capabilities for countering Russian unmanned aerial systems and demining. This initiative is crucial as President Joe Biden's $100+ billion aid package for Ukraine, including support, awaits approval in Congress.
