As per the latest reports, the US Department of State said in a proclamation that it has decided an “emergency” exists in Ukraine that turns into a “national security” worry of the United States, consequently the office circumvent Congress to support the offer of ammo to Kiev.

The choice to sell almost $165 million worth of “non-standard” Soviet-time ammo was made after US Secretary of State Antony “not set in stone and gave itemized avocation that a crisis exists that requires the quick deal to Ukraine” of ammo, including explosive launchers, mortars and D-20 cannons, the assertion said on Tuesday.

The deal, as per the assertion, is “in the public safety interests of the United States, accordingly forgoing the Congressional audit prerequisites” under government regulation.

The declaration came soon after Blinken and US Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin visited Kiev and held converses with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, whom Blinken informed of the arms deal.
