President Joe Biden Signs Lend-lease Act For Ukraine On Russia's Victory Day. by Igbofam: 8:42pm On May 09, 2022 |
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden signed a bill Monday that will streamline the lengthy process of supplying Ukraine with the military equipment needed for the fight against Russia. Biden's signature on the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 will make it easier for the U.S. to lend or lease military aid to allies affected by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Biden already has some power to lend or lease equipment, but the legislation he will sign into law will ease some of the requirements for doing so. Under the measure, Ukraine can request streamlined transfers of U.S. weapons and other security assistance. The U.S. will get guarantees that the country will replace or reimburse the assets at a later date. Monday's legislation evokes the "Lend-Lease Act," through which the U.S. supported allies, including the Soviet Union, during World War II. On Friday, the Biden administration announced a new weapons package for Ukraine worth $150 million. The latest military aid package, the ninth security assistance installment, brings the U.S. military aid commitment to $3.8 billion since Moscow invaded its neighbor in late February. The $150 million pledged on Friday comes from the remaining $250 million in presidential drawdown authority, which allows the president to transfer excess weapons from U.S. arsenals without congressional approval. Last month, Biden requested $33 billion from Congress after he exhausted his remaining drawdown authority. He reiterated his request on Friday. He said that for Ukraine to succeed against Russia, the U.S. and its allies must continue to move weapons and ammunition into the country. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/05/09/biden-signs-ukraine-lend-lease-military-aid-bill-amid-russia-invasion.html Mynd44 Lalasticlala Seun

This was the same Lend-Lease act USA provided for Soviet Union during WWII when they were under attack by Germany. The Lend-Lease act helped Soviet Union defeat Germany. Is History about to repeat itself? In essence this avails Ukraine with an unlimited supply of weaponry including heavy weapons as long as they can afford to either replace or pay for them later. This is more or less a semi blank cheque to Ukraine. Shop as you want 1 Like |

Elvictor: The bill has been signed and it essentially gives Ukraine access to weapons they never had access to before now. They are about to up the ante on Russia. You are saying dream on but even Russia knows better because they know how this same lend lease gave them the advantage against Germany and helped them win. You are an armchair critic so know nothing 1 Like |

rottennaija: USA helped Soviet Union defeat Germany otherwise Soviet Union would have been turned to dust. From Stalin himself: "I want to tell you what, from the Russian point of view, the president and the United States have done for victory in this war," "The most important things in this war are the machines.... The United States is a country of machines. Without the machines we received through Lend-Lease, we would have lost the war.." From Nikita Khrushchev, Former Premier of the Soviet Union: "If the United States had not helped us, we would not have won the war," "One-on-one against Hitler's Germany, we would not have withstood its onslaught and would have lost the war.

Anyway.peace was never an option . Let the war continue till 2085. There will be no country called Ukraine again. Only then will US be happy and they would’ve drained Russia economically. But Russia won’t be drained…. They will rather erase Ukraine with Nuclear. At that point waiting for US to retaliate with Nuclear, and then the 2 champions goes MAD ( mutually assured destruction) |

pol23:lol bro, USA won’t risk San Francisco for Kyiv. If Putin nuke Kyiv which I don’t think will ever happen, life’s gonna go on, na Ukraine’s loss be that. Unless if the nuke fall on Poland nah that fit trigger MAD response. More weapons means more Ukrainian deaths,I’m not saying Russians won’t die too, cos dem no be robot… some of these weapons fall into the hands of RAF, while some are being destroyed. Nuke ain’t on the option, if putin unleashed real hell on Kyiv, there’ll no one left to use the land lease weapons dem go give up, but make we still Dey play the game like this, it’s fair enough. The weapons ain’t free nah generational debt, imagine it took the Soviet Union over 61years to repay the loan. You go think say usa Dey do em favor, their unborn generations go pay back the loan.
