U.S. President Joe Biden and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz held talks on Friday focused on support for Ukraine.

Biden hailed Scholz's decision to increase Germany's military spending and diversify energy sources away from Russia, and said the two leaders had worked in lockstep with other allies to support Ukraine.

"As NATO allies, we're making the alliance stronger," Biden said, as the U.S. announced a new military aid package for Ukraine worth $400 million that includes ammunition and tactical bridges to move tanks and armored vehicles.
