According to the Republican from the House of Representatives Marjorie Taylor Green, the aid "has never been connected with the Ukrainian people"

WASHINGTON, August 7. /tass/. A member of the US House of Representatives, Lauren Boibert (Republican from Colorado), criticized the provision of military assistance to Ukraine. On her Twitter, she commented on a CBS documentary, which said that most of the military aid that Western countries send to Ukrainian forces does not reach their final destinations in the country.

"How many people have been called Russian bots for saying exactly the same thing since March? Now that CBS has shown it, it's totally fine. Anyway, I am glad that the facts have now become known. Most of the aid to Ukraine is fraud," Boibert said.

Another Republican from the House of Representatives, Marjorie Taylor Green (from Georgia), also commented on the film. "This is one of the reasons why I voted against [providing military assistance to Kiev]. She (help - approx. TASS) has never been associated with the Ukrainian people," Green wrote on Twitter.

Only about 30% of the supplies "reach the final destination," Jonas Ohman, the head of the non-governmental organization Blue-Yellow, which is based in Lithuania, engaged in the transfer of military aid to the Ukrainian side, told CBS.

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 gradually imposing 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.
