Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: The ministry announced that the conversation with the American diplomat focused on US military aid and defense cooperation between the two countries. Ukrainian officials emphasized in the meeting that any delay or suspension in supporting Ukraine’s defense capabilities will only strengthen the aggressor’s morale to continue the war and will not help peacemaking.
Pentagon Concerned About Decreasing Weapon Stockpiles
According to a report by the Politico website, citing informed sources, the Pentagon has suspended the delivery of some air defense missiles and precision ammunition to Ukraine due to concerns about an excessive reduction in US weapons stocks. The sources said the decision was made in early June during the Joe Biden administration, but is now being implemented as Ukraine faces the most intense Russian missile and drone attacks in Kyiv and other areas.
