US Announces $250M Package To Ukraine But Denies Missiles To Strike Deep Inside Russia

The United States announced a $250 million military aid package to Ukraine on Friday but refused to change its policy restricting the use of long-range missiles deep inside Russia.

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin unveiled the package at a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany.

The package includes a wide variety of weapons from Pentagon stockpiles -- air-defense missiles, armored vehicles, rockets and artillery and anti-tank weapons. The funding is part of Congress' $60 billion supplemental funding bill passed in April.
