The USA has been on Ukraine’s side for a long time. This was stated by Pentagon Chief Lloyd Austin, who commented on the delay in approving the administration’s new request for assistance to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. RIA News.
“The United States stands with the Ukrainian people and we will stand with them for the long term,” Austin said.
The Pentagon chief stated that he expects Congress to quickly approve the administration’s new request for aid to Kiev. He said the package would include an additional $50 billion “through the U.S. industrial base.” In other words, most of the funds will be returned as investments in “America’s security”.
Austin emphasized that approximately $27 billion in funds from previous aid to Kiev were deposited in American states as part of contracts for the production of weapons for Ukraine. He noted that the United States and its allies are working to make it easier for Ukrainian soldiers to produce spare parts for Western weapons.
