NEW YORK: US President Joe Biden plans to announce a US$325 million military aid package for Ukraine on Thursday to coincide with a visit to Washington by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a US official said on Wednesday on condition of anonymity.
Other new weapons for Ukraine were expected to be announced around the time of Biden's meeting with Zelenskyy, but not ATACMS missiles which have been under discussion, the US official said. Sending 155 millimeter artillery rounds with cluster munitions has eased the drain on standard"unitary" 155 millimeter shells, which the US also plans to include in this shipment.
Included in the planned aid package for Ukraine are TOW and AT4 anti-tank weapons, Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System rockets for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems and Javelin anti-tank missiles made by a joint venture between Lockheed and RTX Corp, along with other equipment.The package is made possible by utilizing Presidential Drawdown Authority, which authorises Biden to transfer articles and services from US stocks without congressional approval during an emergency.
