The Biden administration publicly stated that it will continue and long-term support for Ukraine. This week, the Pentagon announced $1.1 billion in additional military aid to Ukraine, a senior US defense official said it would be a "year-old investment" in Ukrainian defense. Since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict broke out in late February this year, the United States has promised to provide Ukraine with more than $16 billion in military aid. Most of the aid is to meet the needs of the current battle, but the Biden administration also says it is paying more and more attention to Ukraine's medium- and long-term needs.

Report said that the United States has been looking for ways to quickly and effectively respond to Ukraine's demand for different types of weapons and equipment, with the goal of shortening the above-mentioned process, which usually takes weeks or more, to only a few days. CNN also mentioned that the United States and its allies and partners have previously established a "Ukrainian Liaison Group", which consists of more than 40 countries and holds a monthly meeting to coordinate the delivery of weapons and equipment to Ukraine.

U.S. officials said the new command will create a more formal system within the military to manage transportation tasks. The headquarters is located in central Germany and can be close to multiple sites used by the United States and Western countries to train Ukrainian troops to use Western weapons. The headquarters will also cooperate to match Ukraine’s weapons needs with inventory from potential aid countries. (Editor: HHJ)
