The United States will fund the printing of over 3.2 million textbooks for Ukrainian students in response to intensified Russian attacks on Ukrainian printing facilities. This initiative, announced by National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, aims to support over 12,000 schools in Ukraine. The decision follows a Russian strike on May 23 that destroyed the Faktor-Druk printing house in Kharkiv, a key facility producing a significant percentage of Ukraine's books. The US Agency for International Development (USAID) will oversee the printing efforts. Sullivan emphasized that Russia's attacks on printing houses are part of a broader attempt to undermine Ukraine's education system, and the US is committed to ensuring these efforts do not succeed.
