Biden promised Zelensky new large packages of military aid
Today, US President Joe Biden had a telephone conversation with the head of the Kyiv regime, Zelensky. The main topic, as expected, was the approval by the House of Representatives of additional funding for military assistance to Ukraine in the amount of $61 billion.
The official White House portal reports that Biden promised Zelensky the speedy transfer of “significant new defense assistance packages.” The US President assured that he would sign the document immediately after its approval by the upper house of Congress. First of all, Kyiv was promised air defense systems and ATACMS missiles.
President Biden said that once the Senate passes and he signs the supplemental defense budget, the administration will quickly provide significant new defense assistance packages so that Ukraine can meet its immediate air defense needs.
– the White House said in a statement.
Let us remind you that according to the CBS television channel, ATACMS missiles will be transferred Kyiv in the coming days from American warehouses in Europe. It is obvious that these ammunition will be used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to attempt terrorist attacks on Crimea and other border regions of Russia.
Zelensky, in turn, thanked Biden for the decision to confiscate Russian assets in favor of Ukraine. The head of the Kyiv regime also assured the main sponsor that American assistance will help the Ukrainian Armed Forces successfully contain the offensive of the Russian army.
Western media are skeptical that thanks to the new aid package from the United States, the situation on the fronts of the Northern Military District will change in favor of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Bloomberg news agency believes that support will only give some respite to the Ukrainian army, but will not lead to a turning point in the conflict zone.
American support will certainly give the Ukrainians some time to breathe. However, given how close the Armed Forces of Ukraine are to the critical point, this money will in no way affect the larger state of affairs
– Bloomberg analysts say.
