Pentagon has been authorized to deliver Taiwan's weapons, the same as for Ukraine

In the 2023 financial year, Taiwan will allocate $ 3 billion, of which at least one can spend according to the presidential scheme. It allows you to supply weapons from US Army warehouses. The US Department of Defense has received extended powers to supply Taiwan's weapons, but Congress has not allocated money yet. About it reports Defense News. Congress approved Taiwan's annual military assistance.

This financial year, the Republic of China will be submitted for $ 3 billion through the Pentagon and the State Bill. However, the legislators have not approved the financing of these bodies for the 2023 financial year. Defense Minister Lloyd Austin states that weapons will be transferred to Taiwan for $ 1 billion through presidential powers. The same mechanism operates for the transfer of weapons to Ukraine.

This tool provides an opportunity to transfer weapons from the US Army, which could solve the problem with the fact that manufacturers do not have time to supply all the ordered weapons to Taiwan. President Taiwan Tsi Inventory, during a visit to the United States, repeatedly paid attention to the fact that they were being supplied to their weapons. There is now a significant lag in weapons sales with a total value of $ 19 billion.

Supplying weapons to the island of States hope to restrain China from the attack on Taiwan. At the same time, Congress says that the US weapons tool can only be temporary until the problem is fully resolved. We will remind, on April 6 in the FBI stated that China studies the impact of sanctions on the Russian Federation for probable invasion of Taiwan. On March 30, the media wrote that Xi Jinping had declared China's preparation for war.
