Байден подписал закон о помощи, и сказал: ""I'm making sure the shipments start right away. In the next few hours--
literally in a few hours--we are going to begin sending equipment to Ukraine for air defense munitions, artillery for rocket systems, and armored vehicles."
Речь идет об
этом пакете стоимостью в миллиард. ATACMS в нем не упоминаются, как можно видеть... или они могут входить в одну из категорий? Я в этом не разбираюсь совсем...
В последние дни были сообщения о том, что ATACMS будут включены в первый же пакет. Вот, например, корреспондент CNN вчера: New aid package for Ukraine once Congress passes funding is expected to be worth around $1 billion and admin officials have indicated to lawmakers that
it will likely include long-range ATACMS for the first time.
И вот сейчас от Politico: The US has secretly shipped long-range ATACMS to Ukraine. Ukraine has already used them twice on Russian positions inside occupied Ukraine.
US to send more in the $1bn package Biden just greenlit. Конечно, как уже много раз говорили, важно не только включены ли ATACMS в этот пакет, но и их количество.
P.S. Сейчас только увидел
это твит той же Наташи Бертранд из CNN: Long-range ATACMS missiles arrived in Ukraine earlier this month following a directive from President Biden to deliver the long-sought after missiles to Kyiv, the Pentagon said Wednesday.
Biden secretly approved the transfer of the missiles in February for use inside Ukrainian territory. The ATACMS missiles were then quietly included in the $300 million aid package announced on March 12th and ultimately delivered to Ukraine earlier this month, according to Pentagon spokesman Lt. Col. Garron Garn.
More expected as part of this new package, sources told us yesterday
Update: LOL
AHAHAHAHAH 😅
The word "ATACMS" scares Russian propagandists very much...
