The U.S. Senate completed congressional action Thursday on a new $40 billion aid package for Ukraine, overwhelmingly approving it and sending the measure to President Joe Biden for his expected signature.

美国参议院星期四完成了一项新的400亿美元乌克兰援助计划的国会行动，以压倒性多数通过了该计划，并将该计划提交给美国总统拜登签署。

The package is intended to buttress⁷ Ukraine over the next five months to combat Russia's ongoing⁸ invasion.

该计划的目的是在接下来的五个月里支持乌克兰对抗俄罗斯正在进行的入侵。

It includes money for military equipment, training and weapons, as well as billions of dollars in humanitarian⁹ aid, including money to help address global food shortages caused by the three-month conflict.

其中包括用于军事装备、训练和武器的资金，以及数十亿美元的人道主义援助，其中包括帮助解决持续三个月的冲突造成的全球粮食短缺的资金。

The 86-11 Senate vote came on top of an equally lopsided vote in favor of the legislation in the House of Representatives last week.

参议院以86票赞成、11票反对的投票结果紧随其后，上周众议院对该法案的投票也同样一边倒。

It's a broad show of continuing U.S. support for Ukraine at a time when the politically fractious Congress is often sharply divided on the major issues of the day.

政治上难以控制的国会在当今的主要问题上经常出现严重分歧的情况下，意见如此一致，这是美国继续支持乌克兰的广泛表现。
