Al Drago—Bloomberg/Getty Images by [Josh Wingrove, Jennifer Jacobs, Nancy Cook / Bloomberg](https://time.com/author/bloomberg/) ## Josh Wingrove, Jennifer Jacobs, Nancy Cook / Bloomberg Contributor Apr 21, 2022 3:20 PM UTC President Joe Biden said the U.S. is sending [Ukraine](https://time.com/6168064/foreign-fighter-ukraine-frontline/) another $1.3 billion in arms and economic aid, and that he’ll ask Congress to authorize further assistance as [Russia steps up its attacks](https://time.com/6168956/mariupol-defender-hours-left/) in the country’s east. The money adds to $2.4 billion in U.S. aid already authorized for the fiscal year, much of it weaponry. Of the new package, $800 million will go toward arms. Biden also said no Russian-flagged ships would be allowed into U.S. ports, following a move by European countries. “We’re in a critical window now of time where they’re going to set the stage for the next phase of this war,” Biden said. “And the United States and our allies and partners are moving as fast as possible to continue to provide Ukraine the weapons they need, the equipment their forces need to defend their nation.” Biden last week announced a package of aid that he said provided “new capabilities include artillery systems, artillery rounds, and armored personnel carriers,” as well as the transfer of additional helicopters. Before his remarks, Biden [met with Ukraine’s prime minister](https://www.reuters.com/article/ukraine-crisis-biden-official/ukrainian-prime-minister-visits-white-house-u-s-official-idUSW1N2VE04H), Denys Shmyhal, at the White House. **Read More:** [_Ukrainians Are Speaking Up About Rape as a War Crime to Ensure the World Holds Russia Accountable_](https://time.com/6168330/rape-war-crime-russia-ukraine/) More than half a dozen flights bearing U.S. equipment will land in the Ukraine region “shortly,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday. That includes long-range weapons Kyiv is expected to need as the war shifts to Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region, which Russia seeks to capture after its offensive on Kyiv failed. “It requires different kinds of weapons to be more effective,” Biden said Thursday. He said the U.S. will provide “dozens” of howitzers and 144,000 artillery shells. Biden added that the battle of [Kyiv](https://time.com/6158001/ukraine-invasion-in-photos-kyiv-russia/) “was a historic victory for the Ukrainians. It was a victory for freedom, won by the Ukrainian people with unprecedented assistance by the United States and our allies and our partners.” Senior administration officials also Thursday detailed plans to allow as many as 100,000 Ukrainians to come to the U.S. for two years, provided they have family or another sponsor in the country. The program will provide an “expedient channel” for migration from Ukraine to the U.S., Biden said. “This program will be fast, it will be streamlined,” he said. A senior administration official said that [Ukrainian nationals who travel to Mexico](https://time.com/6156863/ukraine-russia-refugees-us-mexico-border-title-42/) and try to enter the U.S. through the southern border will not receive any preference. The official said roughly 50,000 Ukrainians have already entered the U.S. via Mexico in recent months. An online portal to apply for the program will open April 25. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/6169162/biden-unveils-aid-ukraine/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/6169162/biden-unveils-aid-ukraine/"},"headline":"Biden Is Set to Unveil $1.3 Billion More in Arms and Economic Aid for Ukraine","datePublished":"2022-04-21T15:20:13.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-24T14:09:13.582Z","description":"President Joe Biden said the U.S. is sending Ukraine another $1.3 billion in arms and economic aid.","url":"https://time.com/6169162/biden-unveils-aid-ukraine/","keywords":["Ukraine","wire"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltcacb6ca8fdffc8a1/698a3123d075339aade6cc1f/biden-set-unveil-billions-more-aid-ukraine.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Josh Wingrove, Jennifer Jacobs, Nancy Cook / Bloomberg"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltcacb6ca8fdffc8a1/698a3123d075339aade6cc1f/biden-set-unveil-billions-more-aid-ukraine.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"biden-unveils-1-3-billion-more-aid-for-ukraine","caption":"President Joe Biden speaks in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington on March 11, 2022.","creditText":"Al Drago—Bloomberg/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/ukraine/","name":"Ukraine"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/6169162/biden-unveils-aid-ukraine/","name":"Biden Is Set to Unveil $1.3 Billion More in Arms and Economic Aid for Ukraine"}}]}] ```
