US State Dept. Approves Possible $310 Million Sale of F-16 Equipment to Ukraine, Pentagon Says
The potential deal includes aircraft upgrades, training, spare parts and ground handling equipment, according to the Pentagon’s Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
The US currently has no talk of "abandonment" of Ukraine, State Department Tammy Bruce said on Friday.
The US paused military aid to Ukraine in early March following a dispute between Trump and Zelensky, but resumed support after a March 11 meeting in which Ukraine agreed to a 30-day halt on attacks against energy facilities—a deal it later violated more than 140 times.
Russia has repeatedly said that Western arms to Ukraine block the peace process and make NATO nations part of the conflict.
