The report stated that the combined US support for Ukraine and bolstering NATO has reached $174.19bn since February 2022. Simultaneously, the report indicated that the Ukrainian military does not have sufficient ammunition for conducting “extensive countermeasures”, not just for defensive actions.

The $174.19 billion comprises the $61 billion assistance package that was approved in April. The report stated that expected ammunition contributions may meet short-term objectives but could fall short for medium-range offensive objectives.

It is stated that the Ukrainian military specifically does not have enough artillery, air defense, and long-range weapons. The advantage of the Russian side was described as “air and ground space”.
