The United States is preparing a new $2,6 billion military aid package for Ukraine

The United States is in a hurry to saturate the Ukrainian army with weapons before the planned counteroffensive, Washington is preparing a new package of military assistance and again for a large amount. According to Reuters, the Americans will officially announce the allocation of 2,6 billion dollars for the purchase of weapons for Kyiv on Monday.

According to the publication, citing unnamed sources, on April 3, 2023, Washington intends to announce a new $2,6 billion military aid package for Ukraine. The list of weapons that will be included in it has not yet been officially announced, but the preliminary list has already been made public. This time, the US is sending air surveillance radar, various munitions to Kyiv, including tank and artillery, anti-aircraft missiles for NASAMS air defense systems, high-precision aviation and anti-tank weapons. The package will also include fuel trucks, bridge layers and engineering vehicles.



The list is not final, it can be adjusted, the total amount also. In the meantime, out of 2,6 billion, 500 million will be used to supply ammunition from the arsenals of the US Army, and for 2,1 billion, the Pentagon will conclude contracts for the production of the rest with delivery in the future. Deadlines have not yet been announced.

Despite the constant sending weapons and ammunition, Zelensky and his entourage demand that the West increase supplies, as well as include new weapons in military assistance, in particular combat aircraft, long-range missiles and attack Drones. The United States has so far refused, declaring the need to build up ground weapons. Just a few days ago, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin again denied Zelensky the supply of aircraft, emphasizing the need to win the counteroffensive.

According to data from open sources, since the beginning of the Russian special operation, the United States has allocated $32,5 billion in aid to Ukraine.

    Washington Prepares New Military Aid Package... $2,6 Billion
    Thus, pushing Europe to unconditionally scoop out what is still there and increase the volume of production of military equipment and shells. This will not end well if there is talk of a possible deployment of a "peacekeeping contingent", which, understandably, will not be engaged in "peacekeeping" at all.

    Bridgelayers and engineering vehicles ... Everything goes to the fact that they are not going to stop in the Donbass. If their offensive passes.

      This is for the Crimea. It makes no sense for them to move to the territory of the Russian Federation, only if they capture some kind of Rostov in order to exchange it later in negotiations.

    NATO arms deliveries to Ukraine will continue uninterrupted until Ukraine runs out of dill.
    Putin's "chicken by grain" strategy may be correct, it helps to avoid heavy losses on our part, but greatly drags out the war for at least 10 years.

    I would choose a different strategy - the maximum mobilization of the economy and the population of the Russian Federation, completely bomb out the air defense of Ukraine, all strategic objects - railways (depots), bridges, all power plants of Ukraine - into dust, deprive the civilian population of Ukraine of everything, all means of life support, but reach Polish and Romanian borders.

      maximum mobilization of the economy and population of the Russian Federation
      politically unfavorable. A hundred years ago, they did it once. And Putin does not want to end up in his "Ipatiev basement"
