You’re Sending Another $1.25Bn to Ukraine, By The Way.



The Biden government is set to announce a $1.25 billion military aid package for Ukraine, according to U.S. officials. The announcement is expected on Monday as the Biden regime aims to blow more cash on a losing war before the transition of power on January 20. The aid package is expected to include munitions for the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems, the HAWK air defense system, Stinger missiles, and artillery rounds.

This fresh funding comes amid new Russian assaults on Ukraine’s power infrastructure. Despite recent missile and drone attacks, Ukrainian forces reported successful interception efforts. Meanwhile, intense combat continues near the Russian border region of Kursk.

The aid package uses the presidential drawdown authority, enabling another swift transfer of weapons to Ukraine. With the new package, approximately $4.35 billion remains in the Pentagon’s allocation for Ukraine, which previously Congress approved.

Additionally, there is $1.2 billion in funding under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, intended for longer-term weapons contracts. The current regime plans to release these funds by year-end. If completed, total U.S. security assistance to Ukraine would exceed $64 billion since the onset of the conflict in February 2022.
