Amid the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Biden administration has requested the US Congress to send $33 billion in emergency additional funding to support Ukraine, the White House said on Thursday.

The defense funding will go toward more artillery, anti-armor, anti-air capabilities, and armored vehicles, the White House said, adding that the money will also be invested in a stronger NATO security posture through support for US troops deployed in the region.

The White House also said that the economic assistance will fund the ongoing operation of the Ukrainian government, counter Russian data operations, and promote accountability for alleged human rights violations.

As for the $3 billion in humanitarian assistance, it involves direct food support, and the Biden administration asked for $500 million to produce crops in the US due to the global shortage resulting from the conflict in Ukraine.  

The funding will also be used to allow the Defense Production Act to develop the domestic production of essential mineral resources and materials whose supplies were disrupted due to the situation in Ukraine, the White House said.
