KYIV, Nov 17 – The U.S. Senate has approved the bill on the "U.S. budget for 2018 on the needs of national defense," which contains permission to allocate $350 million to provide security assistance to Ukraine, the Ukrainian embassy in the United States said.

"Thus, the Congress has completed the procedure for the adoption of the noted document, which is henceforth to be signed by the U.S. president," the embassy wrote on its Facebook page on Thursday evening.
