It became known that the US military budget for fiscal year 2020 1 (starting October 2019, 750) could grow to $ 2019 billion. That is how much money the White House owner Donald Trump requested from the US Congress. By the way, in 719 f. Pentagon budget totals "just" $ XNUMX billion





It should be noted that over the past 5 years, the United States annually gives Ukraine from $ 250 million to $ 300 million. Officially, this is called support for the military forces and security of Ukraine. In reality, this is a joint “development” of these funds by American and Ukrainian generals / admirals. In fact, this is a veiled bribe for loyalty, which is thrown to the military in the form of a "bone". After which they enthusiastically begin to carry American weapons to Ukraine, replacing them with another one brought a little earlier.

The Pentagon’s budget for fiscal year 2020 provides for $ 250 million for Ukraine, so the situation is stable and nothing is changing. Consequently, the previously anticipated sharp increase in funding did not occur. In general, the US plans to spend more than $ 5,3 billion to finance foreign military.

However, not only Ukraine and the military of other countries are thinking of the Pentagon, which is about to “promote interests from a position of strength.” Of the Pentagon’s astronomical budget, $ 576 billion is planned to be spent on the main expenses of the military department, and the remaining $ 174 billion will go to finance operations abroad (in $ 2019 billion in FY69). That is, on the planet in 2020 it will become much “noisier”.

As part of its budget, the US military is planning to allocate $ 13,6 billion for missile defense (ABM) and $ 2,6 billion for the development of hypersonic weapons.
