According to Ukrinform, Zelensky wrote this on Twitter.
"Grateful to U.S. President Joe Biden and U.S. people for supporting Ukraine in the fight for our freedom and future. Today's signing of the law on Lend-Lease is a historic step. I am convinced that we will win together again. And we will defend democracy in Ukraine. And in Europe. Like 77 years ago," Zelensky said.
Biden signed the Ukraine lend-lease act into law at the White House on Monday, May 9.
The Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act was passed last month by both chambers of the U.S. Congress. The Senate unanimously supported the document on April 6, and the House of Representatives voted for the measure on April 28.
The document allows the U.S. president to use the military lend-lease program to speed up the transfer of weapons, military equipment, medicines, food, etc. to Ukraine. It is expected that the recipient country will pay their cost later.
The military lend-lease program was used during World War II. It allowed the United States to quickly provide weapons to its allies.
