Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated on Wednesday shortly after landing in Washington DC that he will use his visit to the United States to "thank the American people, the President [Joe Biden] and the Congress for their much-needed support."
"I will hold a series of negotiations to strengthen the resilience and defense capabilities of Ukraine. [...] Next year, we must return the Ukrainian flag and freedom to our entire land, to all our people," he wrote on his Telegram channel.
Zelensky will first have a meeting and a joint press conference with Biden and then address Congress.
