Summary
The Biden administration announced $725 million in military aid to Ukraine, including Stinger missiles, anti-drone weapons, Himars munitions, and artillery shells.
The assistance aims to bolster Ukraine’s defenses ahead of Donald Trump’s presidency, as he has pledged to cut all aid and push for peace talks.
This package is part of a larger $7 billion effort to support Ukraine before Biden leaves office.
It includes measures like Atacms strikes into Russia and repealing restrictions on U.S. contractors repairing equipment in Ukraine.
Deliveries will be expedited through Pentagon stocks.
Don’t worry I’m sure the next administration will get right on that.
