Preparation of the $800 million security aid of the Biden administration for Ukraine.
Informed sources say that the US government is preparing about 800 million dollars more in military aid to Ukraine, and it is likely that these aids will be announced within the next twenty-four hours.
After the approval of several billion dollars of new US military aid to Ukraine in the new fiscal year, it is now said that part of this aid is ready.
Three well-informed American sources reported on Friday morning that the administration of President Joe Biden is preparing about $800 million more in military aid to Ukraine, and it is likely that these aids will be announced within the next twenty-four hours.
The sources told Reuters that Biden is issuing this aid to Ukraine using the powers of the US presidency that allow him to transfer more weapons from the country’s military stockpiles.
The sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity, explained that the announcement could come as early as next week and warned that the value of the weapons packages could change before the announcement.
According to Reuters, the White House declined to comment on the report.
It was about a week ago that the United States Agency for International Development announced that in the new fiscal year, it will send another 5.5 billion dollars in military support to Ukraine to help the country in its conflicts with Russia. (More details)
Meanwhile, “Politico” magazine reported on Thursday evening that 6 important European countries, including England, France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Poland, did not send any aid to Ukraine last month.
Christoph Terbish, director of the “Ukraine Aid Tracking” group, also says that the data obtained by this organization show that Europe’s commitment to sending military aid to Ukraine has decreased since the end of April.
