Ukraine is on the brink of a financial and military supply crisis, with the United States' aid depleted and the Pentagon's funds for Ukraine exhausted. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba has made an urgent plea to the European Union for more weapons, stating that the quantity and range of these weapons are crucial to the war's duration. The Pentagon has acknowledged that Ukrainian soldiers are depleting their ammunition, with reports of a reduction from 8,000 to just 2,000 shells fired per day. Compounding the issue, Russia has started deploying North Korean arms, including relatively accurate, recently designed missiles, and a million rounds of artillery. As the U.S. supplemental request for additional funding is stalled, the Pentagon is considering shifting Kyiv’s funding to its allies. U.S. leaders, such as Senator Schumer and Senator Durbin, are calling for urgent relief for Ukraine, warning that a defeat would endanger global democracy and increase risks for the U.S. and its allies.
