The United States delivered its last military aid package to Ukraine this year on Wednesday. The fate of the next one depends on the decision of Congress.
The United States has announced a new military aid package to Ukraine. Its value is $250 million. This was announced by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. It is worth noting that this is the last US aid package in 2023.
– This package provides weapons and equipment as part of the aid allocations previously granted to Ukraine in the amount of $250 million. The package includes anti-aircraft missiles, other anti-aircraft system components, additional anti-aircraft missile munitions, mobile missile and artillery systems, 155 and 105mm artillery ammunition, anti-tank ammunition and more than 15 million grenades, Blinken said. .
“These resources will support Ukraine’s most urgent needs to enable its armed forces to defend its sovereignty and independence,” the US Secretary of State said.
No more money for Ukraine
According to media reports, the Pentagon recently warned that its ability to help Kiev will run out on December 30 unless the US Congress approves additional funds for Ukraine.
On Monday, US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby confirmed that President Joe Biden’s administration only has enough money for one more weapons package for Ukraine.
US President Joe Biden says leaving Ukraine without US help is ‘absolute madness’. He called for “not to let Putin win” and not to give him a “gift.”
According to Western officials, without additional help from the United States, Ukraine will first run out of long-range missiles, then anti-aircraft missiles, and then artillery ammunition and short-range missiles, including Stingers and Javelins. Resources could be completely depleted by June 2024.
