Shredding Russia update
U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told lawmakers last week that more money will be needed by June to assist Ukraine in its war against Russia, according to multiple sources.
Congress, in its most-recent appropriation for Ukraine in December, gave $45 billion it expected to bolster Ukraine until September or October. The money was part of a $1.66 trillion government funding package.
However, the munitions and money from that appropriation is being used up at a faster rate than had been expected.
Milley, who met with Congressional leaders on Thursday, said another appropriation will be needed by June to prevent Ukraine from being unable to maintain operations and defend against Russian attacks, sources said.
Congress appropriated roughly $112 billion in military and economic support for Ukraine in four separate spending bills last year, the Washington Examiner reported.
That includes $23.5 billion in weapons and equipment from Defense Department stockpiles, provided through presidential drawdowns, according to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German research institute.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, generally considered a contender for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, once strongly supported arming Ukraine to fight Russia. He urged sending "defensive and offensive" weapons to Ukraine in 2014 and 2015.
Last week, though, DeSantis criticized President Joe Biden for visiting Ukraine, and questioned the value of U.S. spending for that country's defense.
"An open-ended blank check" is "not acceptable," DeSantis told Fox News.
