According to the sources of the publication, the initial decision to suspend part of the assistance promised by Baiden’s administration (former US President Joe Biden – Ed.) Was taken in early June, but came into force only now when Ukraine reflects one of the largest Russian rocket and unmanned kits in Kyiv.
Rolitico writes that the sources reported this information on the conditions of anonymity, and the Pentagon and the White House were not answered to the comment request.
The decision of the Pentagon to suspend some deliveries caused fears among the Allies of Ukraine in Congress that the country would remain vulnerable to further Russian attacks.
Recall: US President Donald Trump said in late June that he would check whether he would be able to transfer additional Patriot defense systems to Ukraine, but stressed that the United States was also needed.
