Trump resumes arms supplies to Ukraine, according to Reuters.

For a period of time, arms supplies to Ukraine were suspended due to newly elected President Donald Trump and his team discussing their policy regarding Kyiv. There are still differing opinions in the White House about the extent to which the U.S. should provide military aid to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. However, recent observations by Reuters indicate that the pace of arms deliveries has resumed, and the average cost of these supplies has significantly increased. This was reported by the publication on February 3.

It is important to note that this does not mean that during former President Biden's term, such supplies were reduced or halted. The administration of Trump's predecessor continued to facilitate arms shipments to Ukraine; however, during the last year of his presidency, delays often occurred, which Reuters attributes to congressional inaction and "months of internal debates."

This was also significantly influenced by the Biden administration's concern over whether "U.S. stockpiles are sufficient," the report states.

"Delays were most severe during the months it took Congress to approve $60 billion in additional aid for Ukraine, which was held up by opposition from Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress amid Trump's successful presidential campaign," Reuters' analysis notes.

The situation has improved following the recent U.S. presidential elections: analysts assure that the average cost of supplies "has sharply risen to a level not seen since mid-2023."

It was also previously reported that Trump announced plans for negotiations with Ukraine, Russia, and other involved states to address issues related to the Russian-Ukrainian war. This was disclosed on the morning of February 3.
