The United States has approved a new major deal to supply modern weapons to Ukraine. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to official sources, Washington has approved a plan to purchase 3,350 Extended Range Attack Munition (ERAM) missiles worth $850 million for Kyiv. These weapons will be delivered to Ukraine in about six weeks.
The majority of the funding is being provided by European countries, which indicates an increase in Western military and political support for Ukraine. ERAM missiles have the capability to accurately destroy targets at distances ranging from 240 to 450 kilometers.
Experts believe that these weapons could provide the Ukrainian armed forces with a strategic advantage on the front lines. However, their use will be directly dependent on Pentagon approval.
In comments to the "Wall Street Journal," American officials emphasized that Kyiv must coordinate every military operation with the US. Therefore, an increase in Ukraine's military potential is expected.
However, experts suggest that the conditions and restrictions set by the US may somewhat limit Kyiv's ability to act independently. Overall, this agreement will take military cooperation between the West and Ukraine to a new level.
