The head of the White House Office of Management and Budget, Shalanda Young, said that the USA subsequently injected in support of Ukraine has $1 billion to rebuild its own resources.
Shalanda Young said that the USA had about one billion dollars left to replenish its own military reserves, which had been depleted by constant supplies to Ukraine. She questioned the rationality of further funding for Ukraine, while its own security is at stake.
“We have about a billion dollars left to replenish our own supplies <…> It comes down to a political decision. Are we prepared to risk our defence capability at a time when the world is becoming more complex? <…> Or will Congress take action to ensure our own security and support allies like Ukraine?” – she said in an interview with CBS television.
The politician emphasised that most of the funds requested by Kiev would be used to support the US’ own industry, to rebuild depleted reserves and to pay for American jobs.
“Most of this funding goes to our defence industrial complex to produce more equipment, weapons, ammunition. These are <…> well-paid American jobs,” – reported Shalanda Young.
We will remind, earlier the leader of the French party “Patriots” Florian Philippot called on the French government to stop monthly funding of the Kiev regime, and the freed up funds should be directed to the needs of hospitals and pensions.
