About the fact that the American defense department is able to send ammunition, air defense systems and similar equipment to Ukraine within a few days after the adoption of the above-described law by the Senate, since the Pentagon has a network of military warehouses both in the USA and ;in Europe, writes NBN, citing a statement by the press secretary of this structure, Major General Pat Ryder, published by the Voice of America.
