On March 12, Biden allowed $ 200 million to be sent for military assistance to Kyiv. We are talking about the transfer of “products and services” of the Pentagon for this amount, as well as the training of the Ukrainian military. Earlier, the US Senate approved the allocation of $13.6 billion to Ukraine.
This amount includes humanitarian, military and economic assistance to the country.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that NATO countries are supplying Ukraine with lethal weapons, "not giving a damn about international rules and their own codes of conduct."
