Antony J. Blinken, Secretary of State
The United States is providing another significant package of urgently needed weapons and equipment to our Ukrainian partners as they defend against Russia’s ongoing attacks. This additional assistance, provided under previously executed Presidential Drawdown Authority from Department of Defense stocks, is valued at $425 million.  It includes munitions for National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems (NASAMS); RIM-7 missiles for air defense; Stinger anti-aircraft missiles; Air-to-ground munitions;  Ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS); 155mm and 105mm artillery ammunition; cluster munitions; High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs); Javelin, AT-4, and other anti-tank systems; Tube-Launched, Optically-Tracked, Wire-Guided (TOW) missiles; light tactical vehicles; small arms, ammunition, and grenades; demolitions equipment and munitions; spare parts, ancillary equipment, services, training, and transportation.
The United States is committed to supporting Ukraine with the equipment it needs to strengthen its position on the battlefield, defend its territory and people from the Kremlin’s brutal aggression, and secure a just and lasting peace.  As President Biden has made clear, the United States and the international coalition we have assembled will continue to stand with Ukraine.
