The US President will travel to the Middle East next week. One of the items on the agenda was the search for Soviet weapons for Ukraine.
US President Joe Biden on a visit to the Middle East will try to find Soviet weapons for Ukraine. It was written by The New York Times.
According to media reports, Biden has promised to support Ukraine “as long as necessary,” but he or anyone else cannot say how long it will continue. At some point, according to officials, the stockpile of weapons in the U.S. and Europe will be depleted.

“While the United States has authorized $ 54 billion in military and other aid, no one expects another $ 54 billion check when that amount is exhausted,” the publication said.
Biden and his team are looking for a long-term arms strategy because the prospect of a settlement negotiation is far away and the public is starting to feel tired of the war.
According to some estimates, military assistance to Ukraine, approved by Congress, will continue until the second quarter of next year. But the question is how long the current supply of weapons and ammunition will last without compromising U.S. military readiness.
U.S. officials urged other countries to give Ukraine stockpiles of Soviet -made weapons more familiar to Ukrainians. This item, according to the NYT, is on Biden’s agenda on his trip to the Middle East next week, when he will meet with Arab leaders who have been Moscow’s clients in the past.
In addition, Joe Biden said, in his article for the Washington Post, that during his trip to the Middle East he would try to expand the circle of countries that would support the United States in the confrontation with Russia.
Biden will be in Israel, the West Bank and Saudi Arabia as part of a July 13-16 visit.
It will be recalled that the new aid package from the United States will include four HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems, missiles for them, three tactical vehicles, 1000 high-precision 155-mm artillery ammunition, anti-battery system and spares part.
In response, the Russian Federation said that behind Washington’s decision to provide such weapons to Kyiv “is an unbridled desire to drag out the conflict at any cost.”
