The United States has revealed a new military aid package for Ukraine, which encompasses further air defense systems.
In the near future, American President Joe Biden is expected to authorize the transfer of an additional aid package to Ukraine, which will encompass, among other components, air defense systems.
During a briefing on Friday, December 27, White House spokesman John Kirby articulated that the United States is steadfast in its commitment to enhancing Ukraine’s air defense capabilities. In this context, he reflected on the significant strike that occurred in the regions during Christmas.
He also mentioned that the U.S. is planning to provide Ukraine with an additional security assistance package in the coming days.
“Which will include, of course, air defense systems for Ukraine to help them beat back against these attacks and also to help them in fighting in and around Kursk to beat back these North Korean waves, as well as continue their defensive operations against the Russians in the east, where the Russians continue to make some plotting progress.”This package will encompass air defense systems aimed at countering Russian attacks, as well as support for engagements in and around Kursk to mitigate North Korean offensives while also sustaining its defensive operations against Russian forces in the east.
According to reports, the U.S. will soon announce the final package of the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), using the remaining funds allotted for Ukraine’s purchase of new weapons.
On December 26, Biden addressed the significant Russian assault on various regions of Ukraine that occurred on Christmas, committing to enhance the nation’s air defense capabilities.
