Donald Trump's support for the US$95 billion relief package for international aid is a good sign for Ukraine.
The US House of Representatives has budgeted a US$61 billion aid package for Ukraine.
It's likely the funding will be used to boost their military defence, including air defence systems, mid to long-range missiles and artillery shells.
International relations analyst Geoffrey Miller told Mike Hosking says Trump's giving his blessing for the deal.
“Trump has said that Ukraine’s survival is important for the United States. It’s a huge shift for him, so that means that even if Trump wins the election, we can probably expect this strategy to continue.”
