- Seventy-five years on, the Biden administration and Congress have now set aside a similarly staggering $113 billion in American taxpayer funds for Ukraine in a conflict that has no end in sight.
- The huge support package – three times more than what the U.S. spent in Afghanistan in a year – is dominated by the $46.6 billion in military equipment and support.
- the UK in second giving $5.1 billion since the start of the invasion and the EU handing over $3.3billion
- The American package has so far included 8,500 Javelin anti-armor systems, a Patriot air defense battery, 20 Mi-17 helicopters, 31 Abrams tanks and 700 Switchblade drones.
- 109 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, 75,000 sets of body armor and helmets, 38 High Mobility Artillery Rocket systems, and 4,000 Zuni aircraft rockets have also been sent over.
- Military analysts believe the Western hardware has been essential in helping Ukrainian forces keep the Russians at bay.
- And Zelensky wants more, including fighter jets. There has been a push from both Republicans and Democrats to provide F-16s.
- ‘American taxpayers are rightly frustrated with over a hundred billion U.S. dollars that have been spent in Ukraine, especially given the lack of a clear vision or strategic objective in the conflict’ Heritage Action for America executive director Jessica Anderson told DailyMail.com.
- ‘Before Congress even discusses the possibility of additional aid, the public must get answers to a number of important questions.
- ‘This includes some kind of public disclosure of where and how the previous economic aid has been spent, and public disclosure of the impact of drawdown authority.
- ‘Additionally, the Biden administration must articulate a plan on what ‘victory’ is, the American commitment to that ‘victory,’ and the American financial commitment in a post-conflict reconstruction phase.’
- ‘President Biden has been complaining that the Republicans don’t care about the deficit or debt and here he is handing out billions of taxpayer dollars in additional aid to Ukraine.
- ‘America can’t afford to keep on writing checks. If Biden is serious about avoiding a debt ceiling disaster, he needs to act like it and put away the taxpayers’ checkbook.’

- Biden left Washington in secret at 4:15 a.m. on Sunday, flying to Poland and then taking a 10-hour train ride so he could stand alongside Ukrainian President Zelensky four days before the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion.

So on Presidents’ Day, I’m not surprised that Biden is ditching America for Ukraine,’ tweeted Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz. ‘He ditched America’s interests since the start of his presidency. They can keep him!’

Important Takeaways:
- Russian balloons over Kyiv in new wave of attacks
- Ukraine’s army has said Russia fired 36 cruise missiles on Thursday, a day after six apparently radar-reflecting balloons were spotted over Kyiv.
- The missiles fired from land and sea killed a woman and hit critical infrastructure, officials said.
- Ukraine noted there had been a change in Russian tactics, in an apparent reference to the balloons above Kyiv.
- Most of the balloons were shot down, Kyiv’s military said, adding that they were being propelled by wind power.
- Balloons with reflectors have also been spotted over the eastern region of Dnipropetrovsk in recent days.
- “These objects could carry radar reflectors and certain reconnaissance equipment,” said air force spokesman Yurii Ihnat. “The balloons were launched to detect and exhaust our air defense forces.”
- And earlier this week, Romania scrambled fighter jets when an object resembling a weather balloon was spotted at a height of around 11,000 ft (3,350m). Moldova briefly closed its air space because of the unidentified object.
- By “soaking up” as much of that missile defense as possible, the balloons would then allow Russia’s fighters, bombers, cruise missiles and attack drones to strike Ukrainian targets relatively unimpeded.

- Putin is ‘preparing new aerial attack on Ukraine’ with fighter jets and helicopters prepped for battle – as NATO chief warns Europe is at risk of running out of ammunition to help Kyiv fight back
- NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said, ‘This has become a grinding war of attrition and therefore it’s also a battle of logistics. This is a huge effort by allies to actually be able to get in the ammunition, the fuel, the spare parts, which are needed.’
- ‘We see no signs that President Putin is preparing for peace. What we see is the opposite, he is preparing for more war, for new offensives and new attacks.’
- Ukraine’s armed forces are firing some 6,000 artillery shells a day, far faster than their Western allies can resupply them.
- Russia is using as much as 20,000 rounds a day, equivalent to what European factories can produce in a month. But there is yet no decision on supplying Western fighter jets to the Ukrainian military.

Important Takeaways:
- Russia’s war in Ukraine sparked a historic food crisis. It’s not over
- Grain is once again leaving Ukrainian ports. The price of fertilizer is falling sharply. Billions of dollars in aid has been mobilized.

- All the major causes of the food crisis are still with us
