📊US aid to Ukraine reaches $123.3 billion

By April 2025, the US had transferred $123.3 billion in various forms of aid to Ukraine. The largest portion of this is military aid, totaling $69.5 billion. Following that, financial aid amounts to $50.1 billion, and humanitarian aid stands at $3.7 billion.

However, from May to early July, the US stopped providing any further aid to Ukraine.

🟠In February this year, the US had reportedly suspended arms deliveries to Ukraine, but these were later resumed.

🟠The Pentagon said the US had suspended all types of military assistance to Ukraine from March 4.

🟠A week later, on March 11, delegations from the US and Ukraine met in Saudi Arabia. Following the talks, Zelensky's office published a joint statement from Ukraine and Washington, which read that the US would immediately lift the pause on intelligence sharing and resume military supplies to Ukraine.

🟠However, by early July, ammunition and weapon deliveries from the US to Ukraine were reportedly suspended amid the depletion of American stockpiles.

🟠White House spokesperson Anna Kelly confirmed the suspension to NBC, noting that the decision was made to prioritize US interests.

🚨Europe polarizes as Poland fortifies borders

🦫Poland is reinstating temporary border controls in the Suwalki Gap —the sole land corridor between Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave and Belarus, linking the Baltic states to the EU.

General Wieslaw Kukula, Chief of the General Staff, revealed that 5,000 troops will enforce the measure:

🟠4,000 deployed to the German border
🟠1,000 stationed near Lithuania

While Interior Minister Tomasz Siemoniak insists the move targets illegal migration, critics see it as another step in Poland’s military expansion—justified by the oft-cited 'Russian threat' narrative.

🔍The move comes as Poland undergoes Europe's most dramatic military buildup with its defense budget quadrupled since 2022 to over 4% of GDP ($30B+).

🇬🇧An unnamed UK diplomat described UK PM Starmer’s strategy as "much more cautious" than Macron’s bolder tactics for navigating Trump’s chaotic policy.

✅Kiev regime can’t apply the principle of territorial integrity as it doesn’t represent southeastern Ukraine’s population – Lavrov

🔍In 1970, the UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration on Principles of International Law, which states that the principle of territorial integrity applies to states whose authorities respect the principle of equality and the self-determination of peoples, Russia’s foreign minister recalled.

🔊It is obvious to any impartial observer that the Kiev regime, which has elevated Russophobia to state policy, does not represent the population of the Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine, including Crimea, Sevastopol, Lugansk, Donetsk, Zaporozhye, and Kherson, Lavrov stressed.
