On April 19, Reuters reported a series of questions to the White House asking about an increase in artillery supplies to Ukraine, with U.S. President Joe Biden stating that the U.S. was going to increase supplies. In turn, White House spokeswoman, Psaki, tated that: “we will continue to supply more ammunition to Ukraine, along with increased arms shipments.”
The White House will announce a new “big package” of military aid to Ukraine these days. Officials said the size of the package will be similar to the $800 million announced by Biden’s office last week. They also specified that the new aid would include more artillery and tens of thousands more shells, which will likely be “crucial” to a new phase of the war in the Donbas. Officials confirmed that Biden has not signed the new package. But when asked if he would send more artillery to Ukraine, he replied in the affirmative.
Ukraine received fighter jets and spare parts from US allies. John Kirby clarified that the U.S. helped with the delivery of additional spare parts, but did not transport the “whole” aircraft. He did not say which country/countries provided the aircraft. As Russia launches a new offensive in the Donbas, the U.S. will be training Ukrainians in the use of artillery systems “very, very soon.” A limited number of Ukrainian instructors will learn how to operate them and then train their colleagues. The system and its ammunition will also be moved from the U.S. to Ukraine “very, very soon,” he said.
The command of the air force of the UAF denied the Pentagon’s statement that Ukraine had received fighter jets from US allies. “Ukraine did not receive new aircraft from partners, but only received spare parts and components for the restoration and repair of the fleet of aircraft that are in service with the Ukrainian aviation,” the command says.
On April 20, the U.S. is going to send seven more warplanes to Eastern Europe with military aid for Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Ukraine continues its European integration. Matti Maasikas, the EU ambassador to Ukraine, published photos showing Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky handing over the completed questionnaire required for EU accession. The document will be handed over to the European Commission, which will assess Ukraine’s readiness to join the EU and give its recommendations to the European Council by mid-summer.
Already a new package. What happened with the old one? BTW, didn’t know Zelensky was so tiny. He is about the same size as the lady on the right. He looks like a boy among adults on that picture.
“What happened to the old one?”
Erm….The old one seems to have been delivered to a quarry in west Ukraine. NB: the quarry is new: it appeared overnight with a rather large flash and bang.
ZELENSKY IS A MIDGET AND NAZI
No no, you misunderstood. Elenski had received a big package up his ass.
He is a well known Gay Bar Backroom C@@k Sucker…. There is a hard to find porno were Zelenski is seen doing the thing…. “Mariupol was 100% liberated” has the video though..
Ukraine is in western sphere of influence and will get everything what they need to bleed out russian invaders. Belarus is next because majority of their population want economic integration with west. There is nothing that russia can offer and that’s why they must to use force – they stuck in their soviet mindset. Russia = poverty
Wrong again wishfull stinker,80% voted the present leader,not dominion,no usa style fake elections! Soviet mindset catered for science,peace and multicultural living,eu union represents lgbtq + bio labs!
80% ^^ no shit hahahahahahaha :D regime media told you so ? peace and multicultural living? 100 milions victims of communism LOL you are brainwashed little commie
Got any evidence that it wasn’t 80%? Any solid proof of your claim that is not alleged by western media based on “anonymous sources”?
Russia=poverty? So you deliberately chose to ignore the massive national debts and crashing currencies of the west just to cherry pick your argument?
Okay expert.
Meanwhile, the Imbecile Hans Raus pays 5 dollars per gallon of Gasoline and Russians 1.60…….Syrians 75 cents and Venezuelans 30 cents…. I understand that as Imbecile, is impossible for Hans Raus to understand….
Have you ever been to Russia? Like most westerners you seem to be stuck in a 1970 mindset I am one of the (fewer and fewer) people who has seen Russia, Poland and Eastern Germany both before the fall of the Iron Curtain and in recent years and have seen the differences. But by all means, keep being a mindless parrot, repeating lies spewed by western MSM. Dont bother spending an hour looking at background and history to learn something either, parrots dont do that.
RUSSIA STILL “HOLDING BACK” AND NATO WILL CAPITALIZE ON THIS WEAKNESS. RUSSIA NEEDS TO START KILLING ALL NATO PERSONNEL IN UKRAINE ASAP. NO NEED TO ANNOUNCE
Capturing NATO SF embedded personnel is better. Russia can debrief them on what exactly they have been doing for last 8 years, their objectives, command structures, where and how they operated, and then when done with that, Russia can quietly ransom them back to NATO in exchange for Russian financial reserves frozen in west.
Abu Baker Al Zelensky needs more weapons. He is starving for weapons.
His name is Olodymyr Elensky.
For Abu Baker Al Zelensky this is mission Impossible.
Eight years off massive US resources invested into turning Ukraine into a NATO forward staging post for hybrid war against Russian Federation is fast disappearing down the drain. The US are desperate to hang onto this investment, but in economic terms it’s a ‘sunk cost fallacy’ as it’s already as good as gone.
Russia will choke usa/nato!
Hunter Biden didn’t start selling “art” out of boredom since the Burisma and biolab financing scandals came out
It is a big joke. Ukraine is selling these weapons to African nations at big discount. Wonder why there are never enough weapons?
Matti Maasikas, the EU ambassador to Ukraine, published photos showing Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky handing over the completed questionnaire required for EU accession. LOL!!! Turkey filled that one out 20 years ago. No one wants Ukraine in the EU, except the US to drag the EU down.
Wer Waffen an das faschistische Kiewer Bandera Regime liefert, bekommt keine Russ. Energielieferungen… Einfache Lösung – große Wirkung.
What is russia going to do about it? NOTHING!
USA = #1!
Russia must bomb every last airport runway and keep them out of action to make it nigh impossible to get these US weapons into Ukraine.
How many brigdes over the Dnieper river are there? 20? What is the russian army waiting to blow this bridges and cut the supply of NATO weapons to the east areas???
Hard to understand why the EU would unanimously accept a nation at war, other than as a virtue signal
Has nobody in Ukraine a tie anymore?
