The United States plans to increase non-lethal military assistance to Ukraine. American officials reported this to Reuters on condition of anonymity. In particular, according to them, we are talking about the supply of Humvee armored vehicles. There is no talk of the supply of lethal weapons, quotes RBC.
US Vice President Joe Biden is expected to announce an increase in non-lethal assistance to Ukraine during his visit to Kyiv. Officials explain Washington's move as an expansion of support for Ukraine's armed forces, which is "unlikely to have a significant impact on the conflict."
At the same time, the day before, US Presidential Assistant for National Security Antony Blinken announced the need to begin supplying lethal weapons from the United States to Ukraine. Moscow sharply condemned such statements by the US presidential aide. But US State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke said that the United States could indeed consider the possibility of helping Ukraine with weapons. “Our position regarding assistance with weapons has not changed. Nothing is excluded from consideration. We continue to believe that there is no military solution. But in light of Russian actions, as Blinken mentioned yesterday, we should consider this,” a State Department official said.
