KYIV (Reuters) - Ukraine's Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov said on Sunday the country had received a second consignment of weapons from the United States as part of defensive aid totalling $200 million.

Washington has said it would continue to support Ukraine amid concerns in Kyiv and among its Western allies over tens of thousands of Russian troops amassed on its border. Russia denies planning a military offensive.

"The second bird in Kyiv! More than 80 tons of weapons to strengthen Ukraine's defense capabilities from our friends in the USA! And this is not the end," Reznikov wrote on Twitter (NYSE:TWTR).

About 90 tonnes of "lethal security assistance," including ammunition, from the package approved by the U.S. in December arrived in the Ukrainian capital on Saturday.

Ukrainian need to learn from all the countries they helped in past and their people condition after these countries not coming to help people of the country they help them self and their interests once that is achieved you will be dump 😉
Those weapons will end up in Russians hands we all that. What to do? Bring maximum economic and trade sanctions possible right now and be done with it.
No need to talk or threaten just do it and be done with it.
can't wait to read about whose hands these guns unintentionally end up in 5 years from now
stopping the Russian dictatorship now is cheaper than fighting a major war later.
David9,,,, the Russian dictatorship is my source....
I am his source, look at my surname, I am from Eastern Europe, there are a bunch of sources around internet with proves of my word, I see how russian tanks moved through my homeland Belarus to ukrainian borders .I know for sure Russia has corruption and crazy violent emperor. Are you a russian propaganda to persuade everyone that its not true?
Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yugoslavia.how much money that had been spent for all those wars ?NATO can take Ukrain and Russia is going to Alaska. Fair enough
the war in Afghanistan help bring down the Soviet Union the war in Syria is bleeding the Russian military. a war in Ukraine could bring down the Russian economy and the Dictatorship.
we do not want the Butchers in Peking starting wars of agression against democratic regimes in asia. that includes Taiwan officially ...the Republic of China.
Red line, better to stop next war.
wonder how that worked out for Syria?
