The Russian Ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, warned that the militarization of Ukraine directly threatens European and global security interests.

Despite the warnings, the Pentagon this week announced $1 billion in additional military aid for Ukraine.

It is noteworthy that in May, the White House announced that US President Joe Biden approved legislation providing $40 billion in aid to Ukraine.

The law will deliver almost $20 billion in military aid to Ukraine, nearly $9 billion in economic support, more than $4 billion in humanitarian relief, and another $4 billion in foreign military finance through the State Department. 

This comes as the Labor Department had said that the US Consumer Price Index grew by 8.6% from the beginning of the year till May, which is the fastest acceleration of rate since 1981. The cost increased in May.

Biden has been blaming domestic inflation in the US on Russia at a time when he has been pushing for West-led sanctions on Russian oil, which is sinking the world into further crises.
