The authorities of the United States of America are considering the option of providing Ukraine with weapons for years to come in order to help the partner country confront Russia in the event of a protracted war. This is reported by the Financial Times, citing an unnamed Pentagon official..

According to the source, the United States understands the threat to the world from Russia's military aggression, so they are not going to limit themselves to short-term arms supplies to Ukraine..

“If the Russians think they can destroy the Ukrainians, they need to rethink this because we are working to give the Ukrainians everything they need to protect themselves in the coming months and years,” a Pentagon spokesman said..

The FT clarified that the US military, among other things, implies the improvement of the coast guard and air defense systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to him, the weapons that the United States will transfer to Ukraine will help our military to modernize the arsenal and subsequently completely abandon obsolete Soviet weapons..
