US Rushes to Obligate $400M Ukraine Aid Before Fiscal Year End

The Trump administration is accelerating the obligation of nearly all $400 million in congressionally approved military aid to Ukraine before the September 30 fiscal year deadline, with $307 million already committed and $93 million in contracts pending. The package notably excludes Patriot missile systems, per Reuters sources. This move signals continued US support despite political shifts, but the exclusion of Patriots may reflect evolving priorities or supply constraints.
