The budget contains permission to allocate $ 350 million to help Ukraine in the security sector.

Recall, in late November, the US Senate approved the draft law on the "US Budget for 2018 for National Defense Needs".

As reported URA-Inform, the draft law authorizes the granting of lethal weapons to Ukraine defensive character and significantly expands the parameters of Ukraine's support from the United States in the field of security and defense.

The document includes provisions permitting the use of US defense budget funds for the rehabilitation of wounded Ukrainian servicemen in medical institutions in the United States, training and training of Ukrainian medical specialists in this field, as well as for strengthening the ability of the air and naval forces of Ukraine.
