"Weapon will end in 1.5 months": The Council told what would be if the US is not adopted new help

Ukraine spends several billion dollars on weapons every month, and only $ 5 billion is left in the White House, intended for the purchase of weapons for defense forces. The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine suggests that if the US does not vote for a new package of military assistance to Ukraine, there will be a shortage of weapons with Ukrainian defenders.

The chairman of the temporary special commission of the Verkhovna Rada on the monitoring and use of weapons provided by Ukraine by international partners during the martial law of Alexander Ustinov. "I can now say, if no additional allocation of funds for Ukraine is voted, we will end with a month and a half. Oleksandra Ustinova noted that Ukraine is working on several programs for which it is provided with weapons.

"These $ 5 billion is solely to pick up what is already in the US and put in Ukraine. But for that money it is impossible to buy something from our foreign partners and send us," the People's Deputy explained. She noted that Ukraine spends $ 3 billion on weapons per month and there are no issues of logistics for weapons supply. Recall that the US did not approve new support for Ukraine. US lawmakers have approved temporary funding for the US government for 45 days.
