The US must manage to give Ukraine $7 billion worth of weapons in two months, despite the fact that over the past six months Ukraine has received only $3 billion.

“The Americans had up to 12 billion in money for Ukraine under three programs, but a week later they calculated that it had already decreased to 9, and of these 9, two billion were for American enterprises that will produce the equipment and weapons needed for Ukraine, somewhere in a year or even further in the future. And Whether it will get to Ukraine is a big question, but it will remain with the Americans and will boost their economy and military potential. Declaring that this is aimed at helping Ukraine, but, in fact, it affects the economic and military potential of America - that’s what we get from this.

And now even regarding those seven billion that remain, the Americans are talking, discussing and debating, which may not be possible until January 20, when Trump takes office., because in six months – from spring to the present moment they helped us with 3 billion. In six months for 3 billion, and now in two months we need to help with the remaining 2 billion. Here I would like to remind them that before the six-month pause that they organized in helping for various reasons, although there were opportunities, every two weeks they helped us with a billion and a half. And now in two months there are questions about seven. Now a question arises for them, а what's the matter? The problem is the double standards that they have been implementing for these two years, and the slowdown of all processes related to aid. “Unfortunately, we see what results all this has led to,” Romanenko said.
