Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on the US buildup of military aid to Kiev.
Thus, the US budget for 2021 includes several tens of millions of dollars that will be allocated to Ukraine for arms supplies.
“It is planned to develop a program for comprehensive assistance to the development of the armed forces of Ukraine. Obviously, the United States is determined to use the granting of NATO partner status with expanded capabilities to Ukraine to consolidate its influence on the country’s defense sector. By such actions, Washington, in fact, supports the “war party” in Kiev and encourages the course of the Ukrainian authorities to sabotage the Minsk agreements and the continuation of hostilities in Donbass”, – she said.
