According to a report on the Russian website today on the 4th, the US Political Daily quoted internal documents and informed officials of the Pentagon as saying that the Pentagon's funding may be cut, which will tighten US military assistance to Ukraine, including artillery and ammunition. Reported that the United States Congress must pass a one-year interim defense budget before December 16 to deal with the problem. However, it is reported that compared with the budget proposed by the White House for fiscal year 2023, the provisional budget will reduce the Pentagon's funding by 29 billion dollars, or 3.7%. This means that the Ministry of Defense will have to stop funding some important projects, including aid to Kiev. On the 3rd, the media quoted Michael McCord, the chief financial officer of the Pentagon, as saying that the United States would be difficult to provide new arms to Ukraine because the funds approved for aid to Kiev would run out in the spring. He said: "The fighting in Ukraine is fierce, and we are their number one aid... If they run out of ammunition, they will be in a bad situation." According to the report, the reduction of funding may also delay the improvement of several major weapon systems, such as the M777 howitzer provided by the United States to the Ukrainian army. In addition, the document also mentions other problems that may arise from the reduction of appropriations, including the delay in purchasing B-21 "Raiders" bombers and "Columbia" class nuclear powered ballistic missile submarines. It is reported that last month, the White House asked Congress to approve the provision of about 37.7 billion dollars in additional military and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine. If approved, the total amount of funds allocated by the US Congress to Ukraine will exceed 100 billion US dollars in less than a year. (Outlook New Times)
