The United States quietly allocated an additional amount of funds for military assistance to Ukraine against the background of the concentration of Russian troops near the Ukrainian borders. This was reported by Kylie Atwood, CNN correspondent at the United States Department of State, on Twitter.
According to her, the Biden administration’s additional assistance amounts up to 200 million dollars. This information is confirmed by four sources, the journalist says, but it was not announced officially by the White House.
"The Biden administration quietly authorized an additional $200 million in security assistance to Ukraine in late December amid a Russian troop buildup along Ukraine’s borders that has sparked fears of a renewed invasion, 4 sources tell me, @NatashaBertrand & @MarquardtA.," Atwood said on Twitter.
