US to provide defensive weapons to Ukraine

Kathmandu : Russian President Joe Bidan has said the United States will provide Ukraine with “defensive” weapons.

He assured Ukraine that the United States would continue to supply Kiev with defensive weapons against Russian aggression. He also said that US forces would be mobilized to strengthen the NATO alliance in Eastern Europe.

“In order to strengthen our ballistic alliance-Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, we have already authorized the US military in Europe to provide more operations and weapons,’ Biden said in a televised address from the White House.

“Let me be clear, this is a completely defensive move on our part,” he said.
