President Joe Biden will announce a brand new navy support package deal to Ukraine, which is anticipated to look just like the $800 support million package deal the U.S. launched per week in the past.
The package deal comes as Russia begins an offensive to grab the Donbas area that many analysts consider will probably be a decisive part in its unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.
After failing to take Kyiv in a blitzkrieg early within the conflict, Russia downsized its intent, asserting that it sought solely to grab the japanese areas of the nation. In latest weeks, Russia has amassed greater than 50,000 troops in or close to occupied areas of japanese Ukraine.
With a view to fend off the Russian assault, Ukrainian troops will want a large provide of heavy weapons, which the US is offering in support packages just like the one immediately.
