US Resumes Arms Flow to Ukraine as Russia Considers Ceasefire Proposal
The US has resumed military aid to Ukraine after a brief suspension following tense talks between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The renewed assistance comes as Russia considers a 30-day ceasefire proposal backed by the US and Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia is awaiting more details before making a decision. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz are leading diplomatic efforts to push Moscow toward a truce, while Special Envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to travel to Russia for direct talks., 2022
Despite ongoing negotiations, Russian forces continue attacks on Ukraine, and Putin has visited military positions in the Kursk region, signaling further aggression. Ukraine, struggling with ammunition shortages, is relying on the resumed US aid to hold its defenses.
Since Russia’s invasion in February 2022, Ukraine has become the largest recipient of US foreign aid, marking the first time a European country has topped the list since the Marshall Plan after World War II. The US has provided $66.5 billion in military assistance since 2022 and $69.2 billion since Russia’s initial invasion in 2014.
