President Joe Biden has decided that he would not provide a distant radius of ATACMS Ukraine, but this may happen in the future. National security advisor Jake Sullivan stated this at a briefing.

At the same time, he adhered to the point that M1 Abrams would arrive in Ukraine on a schedule - "in the coming days and weeks". "Today, Biden President will announce a new military assistance package, including significant air defense tools to help Ukraine," said Jake Sullivan.
