It is noted that this is the first such step by the United States in several months, as additional funds for Ukraine continue to be blocked by Republican leaders in Congress.
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said an announcement of military aid was expected later Tuesday.
A new package of military aid to Ukraine could reach $400 million.
Help to Ukraine from the USA
For several months now, the US Congress has been unable to approve new funding for assistance to Ukraine in order to continue the supply of weapons and more. This situation stems from disagreements between Republicans and Democrats over border security, funding for which was included in the package with aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
The Senate recently passed a separate bill with money for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. In order for it to come into force, the document must still be approved by the House of Representatives and signed by President Joe Biden.
According to CNN, the House of Representatives may vote on financial assistance to Ukraine in late March or April.
The United States is looking for ways to provide assistance to Ukraine
It was recently reported that the Pentagon is weighing whether to use its last remaining source of military aid funding to support Ukraine’s war efforts, even without guarantees that the funds will be reimbursed by Congress.
It later became known that President Joe Biden’s administration was considering raising about $200 million in funding for the US military to provide immediate support to Ukraine.
