US President Joe Biden on Thursday announced a new pledge of $800 million in military aid for Ukraine as Russia shows no signs of ending its invasion of the country.
Asked about how long the US would be able to continue supplying Ukraine with weapons, Biden said Washington had “the capacity to do this for a long time.”
But he warned that the aid for Ukraine, which was approved in a bipartisan manner in Congress, was “almost exhausted.” Biden thanked Congress and voiced his hope that more assistance would be approved.
The Pentagon released a statement saying the latest drawdown of military aid for Ukraine would include:
72 155mm Howitzers and 144,000 artillery rounds
72 Tactical Vehicles to tow 155mm Howitzers
Over 121 Phoenix Ghost Tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems
Field equipment and spare parts
