The passage of $60 billion aid by the U.S. House of Representatives will send a powerful message to the Kremlin that the United States will stay with Kyiv, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Sunday.

In an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press", Zelenskiy repeatedly urged Washington to quickly pass the bill in the Senate and proceed with the actual transfer of weapons, particularly air defense systems and long-range weapons which he described as priorities.
