President Joe Biden said the U.S. would give Ukraine as much as $600 million in additional weaponry from U.S. stockpiles for its fight against Russia, as his administration seeks to add momentum to a recent counteroffensive by Ukrainian troops.
The aid, which Biden announced in a memorandum to Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday, would mark the 21st time the administration has drawn down U.S. inventories to send weaponry to Ukraine since September 2021.
The previous drawdown, for $675 million, was just a week ago.
