The final arms package for Ukraine from the Biden administration, scheduled to be announced on Thursday, January 9, will be worth $500 million. So, about $3.8 billion more for the PDA program will remain unused, despite the White House’s promises to spend the entire amount before the end of Biden’s term.
According to the Pentagon, these funds will be at the disposal of the Donald Trump administration after his inauguration on January 20.
Before this, on December 30, the United States government announced the allocation of almost $2.5 billion. for military assistance to Ukraine.
In the fall and winter, especially after Trump’s election victory on November 5, the US presidential administration accelerated the supply of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine.
A senior US administration official told CNN that the White House is directing resources to deliver previously promised weapons to Kyiv before President Joe Biden leaves office.
The Pentagon is currently implementing sea and air shipments to meet delivery deadlines.
