U.S. Pledges $100M to Ukraine to Buy More Javelin Missiles as War Enters New Phase

HeadlineApr 06, 2022

On Tuesday, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warned the war in Ukraine is entering a new phase.

Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg: “In the coming weeks we expect a further Russian push in the eastern and southern Ukraine to try to take the entire Donbas and to create a land bridge to occupied Crimea. So this is a crucial phase of the war.”

The Biden administration pledged an additional $100 million in military aid to Ukraine for the purchase of Javelin anti-tank missiles. Since the invasion began, the U.S. has approved at least $1.7 billion in military aid for Ukraine.
