Biden will allocate three billion dollars to Ukraine, and the total amount of American aid will reach 13 billion dollars. The United States intends to allocate another three billion dollars aid package to Ukraine, the Daily Mail writes.
Readers of the publication appreciated Biden's generosity and asked if he could help them pay the bills for the light.
Morgan Phillips, Geoff EarleThe Biden administration is preparing another package of military assistance to Ukraine, this time in the amount of three billion dollars, which will be announced on Wednesday, August 24, that is, exactly six months after the beginning of the armed conflict in this country.
Since there is no end in sight to the battles, American officials are apparently rebuilding their strategy with the expectation of a longer campaign. They allocate funds to train soldiers and equip them with weapons over the next few years.
<...> According to informed sources, the funds provided by the administration will be used to pay for contracts for the purchase of drones, weapons and other military equipment, which may be on the battlefield only in a year or even two. This will undoubtedly anger Republicans who claim that the existing mechanisms of control over how funds are spent in Ukraine are not enough.
Previous arms deliveries were designed to meet the urgent needs of the Ukrainian army for weapons and ammunition. Those aid packages included supplies that were already in the Pentagon warehouses and that could be quickly sent to Kiev.
The three billion dollar package is intended to provide for Ukraine's defense needs in the longer term and to demonstrate to local officials that the United States is unwavering in its readiness to continue supporting Kiev.

Reader comments:david877</span> People have completely lost their fear of nuclear war.
It scares me a lot.
Sam I don't care at all who wins – Kiev or Moscow.
It doesn't concern me at all. I am concerned about rapidly growing bills and prices.
Biden, is there even the slightest chance that you will send some of this money to the UK so that we can pay the electricity bills? We thank you for prolonging the conflict. We have to pay a high price for it.
Whoknew1 Should have accepted Russia into NATO when they asked for it.
But Moscow was written off after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact Organization. The United States now needs someone to intimidate the whole world with - even though they have their own scary Joe Biden for that.
SL Iran in 1953, Guatemala in 1954, Chile in 1973, Ukraine in 2014.
All these coups orchestrated by the United States have created long-term chaos, death, destruction, anger and suffering. A reasonable step would be to offer a just peace, but America prefers to send even more weapons, following its diabolical strategy, which only brings troubles.
Right Center Don't you realize that almost all of this money is used to buy weapons manufactured in the USA and is returned to the US economy, guaranteeing American companies fat contracts in the future.
PhilEe It seems to me that in fact the United States has already declared war on Russia.
Let's hope it doesn't turn into a nuclear one.
Thyselfbetrue I guarantee you that the President of Ukraine has a large account in an offshore bank.
He finds time to post his photos in fashion magazines and show off in other publications. This guy is no different from the others. Now he is saving up his own fortune.
RollinRock How much longer will the West be able to finance this conflict?
The United States has deep pockets, but other NATO members don't. In the UK, for example. The country is experiencing a cost-of-living crisis. There is less and less money that can be used to finance the conflict. Households simply do not have enough money to pay their electricity bills in the coming winter. Everyone is suffering from the conflict in Ukraine, not only Ukrainians and Russians, but the whole of Europe. The Government should focus on a peaceful settlement, and not add fuel to the fire. The conflict will end when no one else is able or willing to finance it.
A.Kanowski The Biden regime wants there to be a war in Europe.
Europe needs to sever ties with the United States. They're not our friends anymore.
jucd911 No, the money that the West allocates to Ukrainians will never return to the economy of the United States.
They will settle on the offshore accounts of politicians.
Smartaussieguy The American military-industrial complex is working at full capacity.
Nobody needed this conflict, but the United States is happy to support it in order to sell its weapons.
default_History shows that when you all together try to punish the people of a particular country, they only unite more tightly.
Russia is not falling apart at all, because, as it turned out, in the current conditions, having good food and fuel supplies is much more important than contactless cards, Gucci and McDonald's stores. Nefariousone Biden gave Ukrainians $40 billion</span> last month, and no one controlled exactly how these funds were spent.
What happened to that money?
Heraclitus66 Biden gave the Taliban* $70 billion worth of weapons.
Is 13 billion for Ukraine fair?
Straight-2-Comments Half of these American weapons will quickly end up on the black market, as happened with a significant part of the allocated aid.
Poor soldiers who have to fight a losing battle in the interests of the elites of the European Union will not hesitate to sell "Javelins" for 30-40 thousand.
