The government of USA announced this Tuesday a new aid package of 300 million dollars for Ukraineusing money from Pentagon “savings” after months of fruitless negotiations in Congress to approve greater military expenditures for the war against Russia.

The White House National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivanmade the announcement at a press conference, where he explained that the money that will be sent to Ukraine comes from “unanticipated savings” from weapons contracts that the Pentagon negotiated.

“It turns out that we negotiated well and those contracts were under budget, so we have a modest amount of financing available”, the official stressed. EFE (I)
