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.
