EXCLUSIVE — Senior members of GOPoversight sent a letter to SecDef Lloyd Austin requesting more information and a staff-level briefing on the multibillion-dollar accounting error involving military aid to Ukraine.
In late June, the Pentagon announced it had overestimated the value of the military aid it had provided to Ukraine by $3.6 billion in fiscal 2023 and $2.6 billion in fiscal 2022, a $6.2 billion overestimation. These recently uncovered funds are eligible for the administration to use for additional aid to Ukraine.
“The Committee would like to know how the Pentagon plans to use the $6.2 billion in U.S. taxpayer funds now available due to the discovery of the ‘accounting error,’” the letter reads. “As demonstrated by previous conflicts the U.S. has engaged in, spending money quickly with little diplomatic strategy has resulted in overspending and high risks of corruption.
Testifying at the joint hearing is the deputy inspector general for audits at the DOD, Brett Mansfield, and Asif Khan, the director of financial management and assurance at the U.S. Government Accountability Office.
