The United States promised Kiev a new batch of military equipment

36
In the near future, Ukraine will receive assistance in strengthening the country's defense in the total amount of $ 100 million, reports Interfax-Ukraine Statement of the Minister of Defense Stepan Poltorak.



According to the minister, the head of the Pentagon, James Mattis, after adopting a law on national security in Ukraine and analyzing the reforms taking place in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, promised to help the Ukrainian army in the form of "weapons, equipment and equipment" worth 100 million in the near future.

He also said that at the NATO summit, the topic of changing the format of interaction with Ukraine, “from deliberative to concrete assistance,” was raised.

For example, in October, the British Defense Minister will visit Kiev, who will determine on the spot what kind of help the Ukrainian army needs in the first place, Poltorak said. He also said that he had recently signed several agreements on the supply of arms to Ukraine with the head of the Canadian military department.

Recall the NATO summit was held in Brussels on July 11-12. It was also attended by Petro Poroshenko. Internet users drew attention to the fact that the Ukrainian topic has ceased to interest the press - a joint briefing Poroshenko and NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg passed in front of an almost empty hall. Nevertheless, this circumstance did not prevent the President of Ukraine from declaring that the Ukrainian question is still in the center of attention of the United States and other NATO member countries.

            And me, and my wife, and Totosha.

            "Wait, are not you
            Last week
            I sent two couples
            Excellent galoshes?

            - Ah, those that you sent
            Last week,
            We have already eaten a long time
            And wait, we won’t wait
            When will you send again

              It is possible and vice versa ...
              At the expense of military assistance - as I understand it, in addition to the faulty Javelins, the Americans also need to fuse something, defective, but hanging on the balance of the military departments.

    head of the Canadian military
    several arms supply agreements to Ukraine.

    A few days ago, an ethnic Ukrainian was appointed Minister of Defense of Canada.

      Error
      Ethnic Ukrainian, Lieutenant General of the Canadian Army Paul Vinnik, was appointed Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Defense of Canada. This was reported July 16 in the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Canada
      Their Minister of Defense is an Ennic Sikh (Harjit Sajan was born into a Sikh family in the Indian state of Punjab)
      And Vinnik is the village of Pozdimir in the Lviv region, where his ancestors came from.

      But not the point. Canada and the EU are more active in supporting Ukraine than the United States. Regardless of ethnic origin.
      100 million is a penny. Here Ukraine relies on the information effect. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are mostly provided with Ukrainian money and resources.
