At the moment, the volume of US military assistance provided to Kiev is $ 8.2 billion
WASHINGTON, July 29. /tass/. The United States Administration will soon announce another package of military assistance to Ukraine. This was announced on Friday at a briefing for journalists by the coordinator for strategic communications at the National Security Council (NSC) of the White House, John Kirby.
He was asked when Washington would announce the next aid package to Kiev. "I think that relatively soon you will hear about another [package]. I doubt a little that I can name a calendar date, but I believe that very soon there will be another announcement about the support of the security forces [of Ukraine]," the White House representative replied.
He refused to talk about what weapons will be included in the next package of military assistance. According to Kirby, "it will be possible to expect something that corresponds to the previously provided security assistance."
At the moment, the volume of US military assistance provided to Kiev is $8.2 billion.
As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in an interview with the Xinhua news agency on April 30, NATO countries are doing everything to prevent the completion of the special military operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine through political agreements. The Foreign Minister noted that various weapons are coming to Ukraine in an endless stream. According to him, all this is being done under the pretext of "fighting the invasion", but in fact the United States and the European Union intend to fight Russia "to the last Ukrainian", they are absolutely indifferent to the fate of Ukraine as an independent subject of international relations.
On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in connection with the request of the leaders of the republics of Donbass for help. He stressed that Moscow's plans do not include the occupation of Ukrainian territories, and the goals are demilitarization and denazification of the country. The West, in response to Russia's decision, began to gradually impose numerous large-scale sanctions against it. Along with this, Western states have begun to supply weapons and military equipment to Kiev for amounts estimated at this stage in billions of dollars. A number of Western politicians have admitted that it is, in fact, an economic war against Russia.
