President will sign an executive order on Friday that will split some $7 billion of the Afghan central bank's assets frozen in New York between humanitarian relief in and compensate victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
The money will be split eveningly: $3.5 billion for the Afghan relief and the other $3.5 billion would remain in the United States to be used to fund ongoing litigation by U.S. victims of terrorism.
Biden will cite emergency powers as the justification for the order, which is highly unusual.
