Biden Administration to Send Ukraine Another $1 Billion

HeadlineDec 09, 2024

On Saturday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced a new $1 billion military aid package for Ukraine that includes drones and ammunition. Austin spoke at the Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, California.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin: “I’m proud to announce today the commitment of a new Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative package worth nearly $1 billion. … Now, that package will provide Ukraine with more drones, more rockets for its HIMARS systems, and more support for crucial maintenance and sustainment. And that brings the total of U.S. security assistance committed to Ukraine since February 2022 to more than $62 billion.”
