Washington provides $40M for Ukraine drones
The U.S. Department of State has signed two contracts valued at a total of up to $40 million with the company "Stream Techno LLC" in Kyiv for the purchase of drones and ground control stations to combat crime in Ukraine, scheduled for February 2026. $25 million was allocated for the first contract and $15 million for the second, following an increase in their original estimates. The contracts did not undergo a standard tender process due to exceptional circumstances, as part of broader support to law enforcement agencies in Ukraine exceeding $140 million since February 2022. This support includes protective equipment, medical supplies, tactical gear, and transportation means. Russia sees the increased Western assistance to Ukraine as prolonging the crisis and undermining prospects for a political settlement, considering that weapon supplies contribute to ongoing conflict and hinder peace efforts.
