The Pentagon announced the possibility of sending $ 6 billion to support Ukraine

The US administration has $6 billion to support Ukraine and may not be asking Congress for additional funding. This was stated by Deputy Pentagon Spokesperson Sabrina Singh.

“We haven’t run out of money. We still have funds from the revaluation we did earlier this year. As you remember, this is about $6 billion,” she said at a briefing (quote according to RIA Novosti).

In June, the Pentagon acknowledged that the cost of weapons transferred to Ukraine was overstated by $6.2 billion. In this regard, the department promised to spend the surplus on further deliveries. Previously Reuters sources reportedthat on August 8, the US will announce a new $200 million military aid package, the first tranche of that amount. It was clarified that the new package will include mine clearance equipment, TOW, AT4 and Javelin anti-tank missile systems, ammunition for Patriot air defense systems, GMLRS guided missiles and other ammunition.

During the briefing, Singh, when asked about the allocation of a military aid package, said that she had nothing to announce today and nothing to announce, clarifies TASS.

According to the Pentagon, since the beginning of Russia’s special operation in Ukraine, Washington has allocated a total of more than $43 billion to Kyiv for military assistance. The US authorities announced the previous package at the end of July. Then the amount of military assistance amounted to $ 400 million.

Total, according to The Washington Post, Kyiv since February 24 last year received about $66.2 billion in U.S. military, financial, and humanitarian aid, the largest amount of support Washington has given to another country since World War II.
