Biden Announces $6 Billion Ukraine Aid, Including $2.5 Billion in Military Assistance, Before Leaving Office
Dec 30, 2024, 03:34 PM
President Joe Biden has announced a new aid package totaling nearly $6 billion for Ukraine, comprising $2.5 billion in military assistance and $3.4 billion in budgetary support announced by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. This brings the total military aid provided to Ukraine under Biden to over $66 billion. The announcement comes in the final weeks of his administration, ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20. The military aid, provided through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) and Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA), includes artillery shells, air defense systems such as HAWK and NASAMS missiles, Stinger MANPADS, ammunition for HIMARS, and other critical equipment. The Pentagon is transferring weapons from its own stockpiles to expedite delivery. The budgetary support aims to assist Ukraine in maintaining essential government services amid its ongoing conflict with Russia. The Biden administration is expediting this support amid concerns that the incoming administration may adjust the level of aid provided to Ukraine.
