Biden's Berlin Meeting: A New Hope for Ukraine's Allies

President Joe Biden is all set to meet with key European leaders in Berlin this week. The meeting includes German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, French President Emmanuel Macron, and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. This gathering, often referred to as the "European Quad, " is crucial for Ukraine's future support. Originally, the leaders were supposed to meet at Ramstein Air Base with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. However, Biden postponed his trip due to Hurricane Milton. Zelensky still visited Germany, where Scholz pledged an extra $1. 5 billion in aid.The US, Germany, UK, and France are major arms suppliers to Ukraine. Together, they have provided around $90 billion in military support since February 2022. With the upcoming US presidential election, there are concerns about the sustainability of this aid. Zelensky has been traveling the world to rally support for Ukraine's defense against Russia. He met with Vice President Kamala Harris and even former President Donald Trump. This meeting in Berlin could play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Ukraine's defense strategy. It's an opportunity for these leaders to discuss and plan the next steps in their support for Ukraine.
