Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk pointed out on Tuesday that he would like to see a publicly available overview of how US aid funds to Ukraine are being spent.

"Would be nice for the public to have some clue how the money is spent," Musk said via Twitter on the latest aid that the administration of US President Joe Biden provided to Ukraine.

Musk tweeted in response to a post - originally reported by Reuters - about the Biden administration being set to announce another $1.3 billion in military aid for Ukraine.

The billionaire is on a spree of questioning US decisions over the war in Ukraine. Earlier on Tuesday, the US administration announced $250 million in aid for Ukraine’s agriculture sector and $500 million in humanitarian aid for Ukraine the day before.

The administration will announce the latest military aid package in the coming days, which will reportedly include air defense systems, counter-drone systems, attack drones, and munitions, as per reports.

A couple of days ago, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX accused the United States of hypocrisy in reference to its supplying Ukraine with cluster munitions, which are widely prohibited.

In a tweet, Musk criticized the US for resorting to providing cluster bombs out of desperation, considering it a degradation of the country's reputation without significantly impacting the course of the war.

"We have run out of normal ammunition to send Ukraine, so now send them cluster bombs in desperation, debasing ourselves with no change to the outcome."

The key is the vehicle count. If Russia's old Soviet stockpile of artillery is destroyed, they will no longer threaten Europe.

He commended the bipartisan efforts of House Republicans and Democrats who tried to prevent the transfer of cluster munitions.

It is worth noting that the US decision to deliver these munitions to Ukraine has drawn criticism from allies like the UK, Canada, and Germany, who have voiced concerns and declined to provide such weaponry.
