President Biden will sign a 10-year security agreement with President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, focusing on training, equipping, and modernizing Ukraine's military forces.
The agreement will strengthen Ukraine's military industry to produce arms independently, akin to the US-Israel long-term security agreements but avoiding a direct commitment from the Biden administration for financial aid.
The accord underscores long-term US support for Ukraine, signaling a commitment beyond the current administration, albeit subject to future political changes impacting the deal's continuity.
The agreement does not involve immediate military intervention but mandates US consultation with Ukraine within hours of any attack, aimed at addressing the country's defense needs promptly.
