The United States has published a full list of weapons that they have handed over to the Armed Forces of Ukraine since Russia began conducting a special operation. According to the United States Department of Defense, $ 2.4 billion was allocated for this, The Wall Street Journal reports.

The memo of the US Department of Defense, which was released by the White House, provides a specific number of weapons that have already been sent to Ukraine. This includes 1.4 thousand Stinger anti-aircraft systems, more than five thousand Javelin anti-tank complexes, over seven thousand small arms and 50 million rounds of ammunition. It is also said that the AFU received from the United States 45 thousand sets of body armor and helmets, laser guidance for missile systems, night vision devices, thermal imaging systems and optics, as well as many other weapons.

At the same time, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba at the next meeting of NATO continued to demand arms supplies from the North Atlantic Alliance. "My agenda is very simple, there are only three items in it," he said. "These are weapons, weapons and weapons."

It is worth noting, as RG has already written, the US defense complex is one of the largest in the world and has more than two thousand enterprises, often owned by private individuals. Arms supplies to Ukraine are a good way for them to sell their products and earn money. At the same time, cases have been recorded when the sent weapons were produced during the Second World War and were stored in warehouses all this time.
