The US Department of Defense said on the 4th local time that it will provide Ukraine with a new batch of military equipment worth about 500 million US dollars, and provide an additional 2.1 billion US dollars in funds to purchase military equipment from the military industry and provide it to Ukraine. The Russian embassy in the US stated that Russia regards this move as a step towards escalating the conflict. The Russian side believes that the United States is not interested in the fate of Ukraine and intends to prolong the conflict between Russia and Ukraine for as long as possible so as to turn Ukraine into a permanent source of threats to Russia's security. The Russian side calls on the US side to soberly assess the dangerous consequences of expanding geopolitical conflicts that such actions will cause.
According to the list published on the official website of the US Department of Defense, since the Biden administration came to power, the US has provided a total of $35.8 billion in military support to Ukraine.
