The US government shutdown has led to delays in the supply of US weapons to Ukraine. This was reported by The Telegraph, according to "Komersant Ukrainian".
“Deliveries of American weapons to the battlefield may be delayed due to the US government shutdown,” the newspaper said.
Consultations in the United States on military support for Ukraine have been suspended due to the shutdown, the newspaper writes.
on October 1, the shutdown officially began in the United States – the government was suspended because the Senate did not approve the draft budget. The reason is the disagreement between Democrats and Republicans over health care funding. Now hundreds of thousands of civil servants will go on unpaid leave, and emergency workers will be forced to work for free. Ordinary citizens will also experience inconvenience.
Against this backdrop, US President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social that members of the Democratic Party want to give money for health care to illegal immigrants and open the borders.
