US Congress approves $620.7 million for Ukraine

The House of Representatives of the U.S. Congress approved the Consolidated Appropriations Act for 2018, which provides for $620.7 million in support of Ukraine, as reported on Facebook on March 22 by the Ukrainian embassy in the U.S.

The diplomatic department noted that the law increased the amount allocated to support Ukraine.

“So, according to the Pentagon’s bill, $200 million are allocated to provide military-technical assistance to Ukraine, which is $50 million more than the appropriations in 2017,” the embassy reported.
