United States President Joe Biden inked the $40.1 billion aid package for Ukraine, paving the way for additional military and humanitarian assistance to be sent to the Eastern European country, according to CNN.

The legislation, which already passed the House and the Senate, was inked by the head of state while he was on his visit to Seoul, a White House official told the media outlet.

Biden reportedly signed the bill early on Saturday, as he also backed the effort to boost baby formula supply across the US.
