VisitBiden Administration to Lift Ban on Military Contractors in Ukraine for First Time
Jun 25, 2024, 06:28 PM
The Biden administration is moving toward lifting a de facto ban on American military contractors deploying to Ukraine. This policy shift aims to assist the Ukrainian military in maintaining and repairing U.S.-provided weapons systems. The decision, reported by CNN and confirmed by four U.S. officials, marks a significant change in U.S. involvement in the conflict. Initially, the contractors will focus on repairing air defense systems directly in Ukraine. This would be the first time such a ban is lifted during the war.
