U.S. to provide weekly aid to Ukraine through end of Biden’s term
By the end of Joe Biden's presidency, Ukraine will have received $7.1 billion in aid from the United States
Deputy Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh shared the information at a briefing.
Joe Biden's administration is actively working and developing large aid packages that will be delivered to Ukraine on a weekly basis until Donald Trump's inauguration.
“The president made clear that he wants to spend down the authority that Congress has allocated and authorized before he leaves office,” Singh said in a statement.
She also added that the Pentagon continues to replenish its stockpile to keep the U.S. combat readiness level up, while ensuring that Ukraine has the resources it needs to be successful on the battlefield.
“Secretary Austin recently had a call with Minister Umerov. They discussed the capabilities that Ukraine needs to continue to push the Russians back, to continue to be successful in their strategic battle plans,” Sabrina Singh added.
In total, Ukraine will receive $7.1 billion in aid.
