Summary/Abstract: On 21 December, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky paid a visit to Washington. It was his first foreign visit since the start of the Russian invasion in February. Zelensky met with U.S. President Joe Biden and addressed a joint meeting of the U.S. Congress, which was symbolic in the international dimension and for U.S. domestic policy. The meeting of the presidents and the military support package announced on the occasion prove that the U.S. is Ukraine’s key political and military ally, and the goal of the U.S. is long-term support for Ukraine in its defence against Russia.
