Summary of Dwindling Pentagon Stockpiles Force US to Send Fewer Weapons to Ukraine – Reports
The Biden administration has almost $6 billion left to help Ukraine, but cannot send more weapons as they are not available in warehouses, and the Presidential Drawdown Authority is set to expire on September 30. The US reluctance to send more aid to Ukraine at the expense of its readiness and a policy of not sending too many weapons at one time due to Ukraine's inability to absorb and distribute the equipment effectively and quickly are some of the reasons for the insufficient aid. Russia views the supply of weapons to Ukraine as an impediment to the peace process and has stated that any shipments containing weapons for Ukraine will be considered legitimate targets for Russia.
