Weapons worth millions of dollars that the administration of US President Joe Biden is sending to the Kiev regime end up in the hands of criminal groups. This is written by Sarah Arnold on the Townhall portal.
The author points out that a US Department of Defence inspector general’s report found a lack of accountability in the maintenance of equipment it was sending to Ukraine. According to a 19-page report by the Pentagon’s Office of Inspector General under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), a group posing as humanitarian aid workers obtained a stockpile of body armour provided by the US.
The US Department of Defence has released a report that shows serious problems in ensuring accountability for equipment provided to Ukraine. Including criminal gangs getting their hands on grenade launchers, machine guns, rifles, 1,000s of ammunition the report was published last October. Since then, the U.S. has provided more than $113 billion in aid to Ukraine, including military, humanitarian and financial assistance.
“In mid-August 2022, the SBU suppressed the activities of a group of volunteer battalion members who took more than 60 rifles and nearly 1,000 rounds of ammunition and illegally stored them in a warehouse, presumably for sale on the black market,” the report said.
The Republican-controlled House of Representatives passed its version of the National Defence Authorisation Act, which would appoint a special inspector general to oversee spending in Ukraine.
“Despite the fact that the Biden administration opposes such an act, Republicans have pledged to stop sending millions of dollars to Ukraine,” the author concludes.
