We’re working to provide the Ukrainians with artillery systems - Jen Psak

We’re working to provide the Ukrainians with artillery systems. Such a statement made the press-secretary of the White House.

“Of course, what our focus is on is continuing to provide a range of security assistance. We essentially look at and review the requests made by Ukrainian leaders. And last week, they had a call with our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and our National Security Advisor - a two-hour call - where they went through items on that list.

And I think this was already - this was also provided by the Defense Department, but let me reiterate: We’re also - as we’re looking to continue to expedite delivery - we’ve committed USD 1.7 billion, as you all know - we’re working to provide the Ukrainians with artillery systems that they have recently requested in conversations between our governments. And we’re working to provide them with artillery from U.S. stocks but also to facilitate the transfer from other allies and partners as well, as we did with the S-300 and the backfill of the Patriot battery system”, - said Jen Psaki.
