The Biden administration plans to appeal to Congress for additional funds for Ukraine in 2025.

It regards financing, in particular, the military aid that Ukraine receives to counter the Russian invasion.

“Therefore, it only stands to reason that in the next two months, the administration will signal to Congress that we would like to see additional funds for Ukraine for 2025 so that they can be in the best possible position,” Sullivan stated.

The U.S. National Security Advisor did not specify in what form the administration would propose to Congress to approve additional funding.

However, he added that the Biden administration considers seeking additional resources to support Ukraine necessary and logical.

Sullivan also assured that the current US government intends to use every dollar that Congress has already allocated to help Ukraine until the end of Joe Biden’s term.

“As we provide weapons to Ukraine, we make new weapons to give to the U.S. military. All those dollars will be spent and will be obligated by the time he leaves office on January 20th,” the U.S. National Security Advisor noted.

The U.S. Department of Defense previously clarified the amount remaining for military aid to Ukraine.

$9.3 billion was left for military aid to Ukraine. Approximately $7.1 billion is left in the Presidential Drawdown (PDA).

Additionally, approximately $2.2 billion is available under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI). The Pentagon spokesman emphasized that the United States will use all available funds to help Ukraine.

The United States will soon send Ukraine 500 interceptor missiles for the NASAMS and Patriot air defense systems.
