Zelensky on Western defense funds

Zelensky secured Western funding designed to last the entire year. Yet the Ministry made early decisions to burn through cash meant for the second half during the first half instead. They effectively spent the future allocation already. This means Western taxpayers are on the hook to cover that premature expenditure. Expect Western leaders to mandate fresh infusions of capital and write new checks to plug the gap created by this timing shift.
