The United States is preparing another package of military assistance to Ukraine worth at least $275 million. The package includes HIMARS highly mobile artillery missile systems, Javelin anti-tank systems, 155 mm and 105 mm artillery shells, as well as air defense systems, spare parts and other necessary equipment. About this.

According to The Associated Press, it includes HIMARS highly mobile artillery missile systems, Javelin anti-tank systems, 155 mm and 105 mm artillery shells, as well as air defense systems, spare parts and other necessary equipment.

The journalists explained that the weapons will be provided under the President's arms reduction authority, which allows the Pentagon to quickly pull stocks from its shelves and speed up their delivery to the front line in Ukraine.

"Trump's impending arrival in the White House has set off an intense scramble by the Biden administration to ensure that all congressionally approved funding for Ukraine is delivered and that Kyiv is in a strong position going into winter," the article says.

Experts point out that the White House is trying to maximize the use of funding approved by Congress for Ukraine's military needs by the end of its term. The US State Department has also announced the approval of a $100 million deal that includes military equipment repairs, personnel training and technical support.

The aid comes amid fears of an escalating conflict. All sides are trying to gain an advantage, as a possible end to the war, which Trump is seeking, could change the course of events on the frontline.

It is worth recalling that Donald Trump won the US presidential election. Almost 74.7 million Americans voted for him, and his rival, Kamala Harris, received more than 69.7 million votes, according to preliminary data.
