The Biden administration announced on Tuesday that it was sending up to $300 million in weapons to Ukraine, the first new aid package for the country since funding ran out (tài trợ đã hết) in late December.
The package, pulled together from money that Army accountants cobbled from savings from contracts that came in under bid, includes air defense interceptors, artillery rounds and armor systems, senior defense officials said. Two U.S. officials said the package also includes an older version of the Army’s longer-range missile systems (hệ thống tên lửa tầm xa) known as ATACMS, which can travel 100 miles.
It is a stopgap measure at best, the officials said, but Ukraine is in dire need of air defense systems in particular, as Russia has continued its bombardment (bán phá) of towns particularly in the east.
President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, in his overnight address, thanked “the United States and all Americans who value freedom (đề cao giá trị tự do)” for their support of his country.
The Senate passed an emergency aid bill including $60.1 billion for Ukraine. But the measure faces an uncertain fate in the House of Representatives, where Republican leaders have refused to put the measure to a vote. While congressional (quốc hội) officials say there is a critical mass of support for continuing to arm Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression, the Republican Party is increasingly turning away from its traditional hawkish posture and belief in projecting American power and democratic principles (nguyên tắc dân chủ) around the world.
The money ran out in December, and Mr. Biden asked Congress for the authority to begin a new infusion of cash and equipment that only it can approve. But many Republicans object to pouring more taxpayer dollars into the conflict (mâu thuẫn).
Senior intelligence officials warned on Monday that without additional American aid, Ukraine faced the prospect of continued battlefield losses (tổn thất chiến trường) as Russia uses a network of arms suppliers and increases its supply of technology from China.
