US to provide $54M in aid to Ukraine

United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken declared on Sunday that the US will provide about $54 million in humanitarian assistance to Ukrainians. He stated the aid will go “through independent humanitarian organizations that deliver needs-based assistance with impartiality, humanity, neutrality, and independence.”

The assistance will enclose the provision of food, safe drinking water, shelter, emergency health care, winterization, and protection. “Our funding will also help humanitarian organizations maintain contact between family members who have been separated due to the conflict, hopefully leading to reunification in some cases.
