The Pentagon Audit Procedure also manages other arms transfers. The Elbridge Colby Pentagon categorized in green, yellow and red layers, limiting what can be sent to Kijaya based on American stocks. The Secretary of Defense of Pete Hegseth now has powers to regain weapons in the short term.

This move probably reflects the white house efforts to push Moscow towards peace negotiations. “President Trump was very clear that the war in Ukraine must end,” said the police of the white house Karolin Leavitt. “There was no change in military posture in Russia-Ukraine,” she continued.
