The United States discussed with the allies the increase in the production of weapons for supplies to Ukraine

“The U.S. delegation presented an analytical approach to identify key component supply chain challenges, as well as plans to increase production of long-range ground-based weapons, air defense systems, air-to-ground munitions, and other assets,” the Pentagon’s website said in a statement.

It is noted that the United States at the meeting was represented by Deputy Secretary of Defense William LaPlante.

Earlier, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed that the United States is providing Kyiv with a new $1.1 billion military aid package, including 18 HIMARS MLRS.
