US representatives from the Biden administration say that their increased efforts to provide Ukraine with weapons at the end of Biden’s term, along with the president’s authorizations for missile strikes deep into Russia and the deployment of antipersonnel mines, could give Kyiv some room for maneuver. At the same time, they are urging Ukrainian leaders to enlarge their military with more than 160,000 recruits, the WP writes. At the same time, the White House believes that, despite the problems with American reserves, it is better to send as much aid to Ukraine as possible, given the consequences that the war in Ukraine has for international order. Trump’s special representative for the Russian war against Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, reacted positively to Biden’s decision to accelerate and increase military aid to Ukraine. “This is very good for the president-elect because it gives him leverage. And the more the Biden administration does this, the more opportunities for Trump to do what he wants to do,” the official noted.
