In the coming days, the administration of US President Joe Biden will announce its latest package of aid to Kyiv under the “Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative” (USAI), using the remaining funds allocated for the purchase of new weapons for Ukraine. This is reported by the Reuters agency with reference to sources UNN.

According to one of the interlocutors of the agency, the package will include anti-aircraft interceptors and artillery ammunition, but the exact content of the package will be announced in the coming days.

The cost of the package will be about 1.2 billion dollars.

Under the USAI program, military equipment is procured from the defense industry or partners rather than from American stockpiles, meaning it can take months or years to arrive on the battlefield.

According to Reuters, since the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the United States has allocated $175 billion in aid to Ukraine, including approximately $61.4 billion in security assistance. About half of this security assistance came through the USAI program. The rest was drawn from existing military stockpiles through the president’s drawdown authority.

It said the remainder of the president’s cutback authority is $5.6 billion.
