US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin denied the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, priority delivery of ATACMS missile systems. This was reported by the Wall Street Journal with reference to two American officials and an adviser from the Ukrainian government.
"Austin rejected the recent request ... of Vladimir Zelensky to give priority to Ukraine bypassing other buyers in the supply of ATACMS," the article quoted by RIA Novosti says.
The head of the Pentagon said that Zelensky was crossing the line, demanding that The United States violated long-standing agreements with other customers, the newspaper notes.
As reported by EADaily, the current US administration is hastily trying to send Kiev as much ammunition as possible before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. It is reported by The Wall Street Journal.
We are talking about more than 500 interceptor missiles for Patriot and NASAMS systems.
