The US President also "discussed the strategic consequences of inaction for Ukraine, the US and the world".

He noted that Congress’s inaction puts the national security of the US, NATO and the rest of the free world in danger.

Biden urged Congress to quickly provide additional funding for the support for Ukraine and send a powerful message of US resolve.

He added that he was inspired by the progress achieved in bipartisan talks held in the Senate.
