WASHINGTON – The Biden administration announced $1.1 billion in additional security assistance for Ukraine on Wednesday, bringing the U.S. commitment to more than $16.2 billion since Russia’s invasion in late February.
The announcement of the upcoming aid package, the 22nd such installment, follows referendums held in four Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine that are backed by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The votes, widely viewed as rigged and illegitimate, are to determine if Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson should become part of Russia. They’ve been criticized as a scheme by Putin to pave the way for Moscow to announce it has annexed more of Ukraine by the end of the week.
Earlier this week, the White House said the U.S. would never acknowledge the results of the “sham referendum” and would continue providing Kyiv with military and humanitarian support.
The latest U.S. security package consists of 18 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, or HIMARS, as well as munitions for those systems, 150 armored multipurpose vehicles, 150 tactical vehicles to tow weapons, 40 trucks and 80 trailers to transport heavy equipment, two radars for unmanned aerial systems, 20 multi-mission radars as well as secure communication systems and body armor.

10% for the Big Guy?
How much was given yesterday? I forgot the number. Is anybody adding it all up?
Just what does ukraine have on biden that he is draining this country’s resources to keep the ukrainains from spilling the beans?
He obviously owes them big time.
Remember this in 2024: find out how much biden is worth after he leaves the oval office. Find out every 6 months. Notice when there’s a big jump in his net worth.
Okay, how much money until we own the whole country? Wouldn’t it have been cheaper just to buy it outright?
I’m only half kidding.
That was my thought too. By the way, how much was the Mexico wall going to cost?
Seems like a billion a day, doesn’t it?
We are governed by truly EVIL men. Evil, evil, evil.
When Empires end, there is always a general looting of the treasury. We’re witnessing that and those politicians we thought were on our side, never were.
How can he just throw billions at this and we could barely get a penny to build the wall?!
Why are you half kidding? It’s a legit question.
What is the total amount in money and materials have we handed to Ukraine?
Show me the precise accounting records for all we have handed over. I want a full accounting with no future stories about how billions went missing in Ukraine. Unbelievable how lax we are in handing over so much with no accountability.
Tell me, spec, how is Ukraine covering all its national bond debt? Do you want to bet we are covering all those costs and the fat/
-cat Wall Street bankers are completely covered.
Where is the media?
Money laundering..
Bidens pocket the money against the peoples tax dollars... eukraine is corrupt.. why else does Joe send billions ..
Sick of the double standard..
The demented old fag is shoveling money at those losers like it grows on trees. Every day it’s billions more. This crap has got to end. We could have built a beautiful border wall with all the money the Demented One has given to the Ukies. That border wall could have kept those Martha’s Venezuelans out of the vineyard and saved the Martha’s a lot of money they had to payout for counseling.
The Ukrainians have the evidence on Pedo-Joe’s and Hunter’s crooked deals so Pedo-Joe will give them all the taxpayer money they want.
Good grief...
Just 1 billion equals 1,000 million!
They’re looting America!
Now that Ukraine is four oblasts smaller, it should need less aid.
Ay, por favor-esta mierda otra vez? Since we’ve been sending a billion $$$$$ or more per week to Ukraine for months now, shouldn’t we own it outright by now? What is the current going price for a small independent member country of the former USSR?
It's possible they're attempting to intentionally start WWIII as a diversion away from their own corruption, which could be exposed in the next few months. And if a few million die, they couldn't care less, as long as their butts are protected.
Remember, these are the same people who subverted elections and conducted an armed raid on a former presidents private residence!
These people are capable of anything.
