PoliticsZelensky, von der Leyen plan UN meeting as EU releases $3.7 billion for Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen discussed defense funding and the upcoming U.N. General Assembly in a Sept. 17 call. The EU will disburse 3.3 billion euros for missiles and drones on Sept. 18, less than the previously promised 4.7 billion euros because of delays processing Ukrainian military-equipment receipts. The two leaders agreed to meet in New York.
