Today I had another phone call with my colleague? @oleksiireznikov.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin tweeted..

"

Recall that on the night of April 24-25, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Pentagon Chief Lloyd Austin visited Kyiv.. then, at the Ramstein military base in Germany, Lloyd Austin held a meeting with 40 representatives of NATO countries regarding assistance to Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggressors.

Recall also that on May 9, US President Joe Biden signed the law on lend-lease for Ukraine, and on May 10, the US Congress adopted a bill on the allocation of $ 40 billion to help Ukraine.. However, when the bill was considered in the Senate, Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul blocked the passage of the bill.. He demanded that an article be included in the document on the audit of expenses by a federal inspector..
