Biden accuses Trump of sabotaging the deal on Ukraine and border security
February 7, 2024The United States is deliberating a controversial bill proposing more than $60 billion in assistance to Ukraine; however, the predominant share of these funds will not depart from American soil, as outlined by Politico.
These funds will be channeled towards acquiring new arms from US-based manufacturers to replenish stocks depleted from previous attempts to equip Ukraine, and to secure contracts for additional armaments for Kyiv.
Despite discussions about allocating $60 billion directly to Ukraine, a considerable portion of the designated funds will remain within the United States. Instead, billions of dollars will flow into the Pentagon’s budget to purchase weaponry from American manufacturers, address depleted inventories and fund military operations while securing contracts for new weapons for Kyiv. This decision, if approved, is poised to bolster the domestic defense industry. Republican Senator Mitch McConnell emphasized the reality in November, stating that aside from funds allocated for US military training and logistics support in Europe, the majority of American security assistance remains invested in domestic facilities.
