Overview
On December 7, 2024, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced a $988 million arms package for Ukraine, emphasizing long-term military support amid Russia's intensified aggression, including the involvement of North Korean troops. The funding will enhance Ukraine's military capabilities with additional drone systems and HIMARS munitions. This package is part of a larger effort as the Biden administration aims to allocate existing congressionally approved funds before the upcoming change in administration. Total U.S. military aid to Ukraine since February 2022 exceeds $62 billion.
