Zelensky's first visit to America after the attack, 'will meet with Biden'

 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is visiting the United States for the first time since the Russian invasion in February.

The Associated Press news agency, citing sources, said that in addition to two congressional sources, another person familiar with the visit confirmed the Ukrainian president's visit to the United States.

He said on the condition of anonymity that Vladimir Zelensky's visit is fully scheduled, but there is still a possibility of postponement due to security issues.

Volodymyr Zelenskiy's scheduled visit includes a meeting with President Joe Biden and a speech on Capitol Hill.

The Ukrainian president's visit comes as US lawmakers vote in the next few days on a year-end spending package that includes $45 billion in aid for Ukraine.

Similarly, the supply of surface-to-air missiles to protect Ukraine from Russian attacks is also part of the package.

Zelenskiy's visit comes a day after his 'dangerous and daring' visit to what he described as the 'most tense area' in the front-line town of Bakhmut. .

While appreciating the spirit of the Ukrainian soldiers on this occasion, when he said that "courage and resistance are your strength", the sounds of heavy weapons were heard in the background.

The Ukrainian president told the troops that they had arrived there via Slavyansk, Kramatorsk and Druzheka.

It was an unannounced visit that was presented in a way that showed Russia's failure as Russian troops attempt to take over the city.

It should be remembered that Russia attacked the neighboring country of Ukraine on February 24 this year, since then there has been continuous fighting.

After the attack, Western countries, including the United States, are supporting Ukraine and have imposed economic sanctions on Russia and are also helping Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says there will be no surrender, while Russian President Putin says fighting will continue until Ukraine surrenders.

During the fighting, Russia occupied several areas of Ukraine, some of which were annexed after a referendum, while others were retaken by Ukrainian troops.

The international community has rejected the referendum held by Russia.

The Russian president has also threatened to use nuclear weapons in the war.
