Biden signs lend-lease for Ukraine
As UNIAN reported earlier, on April 7, the United States Senate passed a law on lend-lease for Ukraine, and on April 28, the US House of Representatives did so.
The law is intended to expedite the transfer of military aid by cutting red tape. It allows the de facto donation of weapons on the condition that the recipient country pays later.
On May 9, US President Joe Biden signed the Lend-Lease Act for Ukraine.
