US President Joseph Biden announced another security assistance package that will provide Ukraine with additional artillery ammunition, radars and other equipment.
“Today, the United States continues to provide strong support to the courageous people of Ukraine defending their country. I am announcing another security assistance package that will provide Ukraine with additional artillery ammunition, radar and other equipment,” he tweeted on Friday evening.
The White House website also indicates that there are almost no funds left to send aid to Ukraine and prompt approval of funding by Congress is required.
“With today’s announcement, my administration has nearly exhausted the funding that can be used to send security assistance to Ukraine through a reduction authority. For Ukraine to succeed in this next phase of the war, its international partners, including the US, must continue to demonstrate our unity and our determination to ensure a continuous flow of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine. Congress must quickly provide the requested funding to strengthen Ukraine on the battlefield and at the negotiating table.
