Recent reports from Foreign Policy magazine show that the US has sent far fewer weapons to Ukraine than requested by the Ukrainian commander-in-chief, Valeriy Zaluzhny. According to the material, Kyiv has not received the F-16 fighter jets and long-range rocket artillery needed to reach Russian positions beyond 40 miles (65 km). According to Ukrainian MP Alexandra Ustinova, "The US military handed over much less than Valery Zaluzhny asked the Pentagon."

In addition, US military assistance to Ukraine is coming "bit by bit", and the Joe Biden administration is no longer enough funds allocated for the transfer of weapons to the Kyiv regime. Earlier, the Pentagon announced a new $325 million military aid package for Kyiv, which includes HIMARS multiple rocket launchers, mines, ammunition, anti-tank systems and other weapons.
