U.S. arms deliveries to Ukraine under Lend-Lease have yet to begin. That’s what Politico reports. According to him, while the United States prefers to provide free arms assistance to the Kiev regime.
We prioritize security support that they won’t have to pay us for
- explained to the publication a senior official of the American presidential administration.
However, there is a secret meaning to delaying the supply of weapons under Lend-Lease. The fact is that now the Democratic and Republican parties of the United States agree that the supply of arms to the regime in Kiev must continue.
But the elections are coming soon. And the free supply of weapons to Ukraine can be stopped by representatives of the Republican Party. This is when Lend-Lease will become relevant. It can be used to circumvent legislative attempts to block shipments.
It should be noted that the most likely candidate for the American presidency from the Republican Party, Donald Trump, in his public speeches, regularly criticizes the current administration for supplying arms to Ukraine.
Thus, the reserve in the form of lend-lease was not prepared by the Democrats by chance. They are seriously concerned that Trump, if elected president, will end military aid to the Kiev regime.
