The agency noted that the sale would support US foreign policy and national security goals by strengthening the security of a partner country that promotes political stability and economic progress in Europe.
"This proposed sale will improve Ukraine’s capability to meet current and future threats by further equipping it to conduct self-defense and regional security missions. Ukraine will have no difficulty absorbing these articles and services into its armed forces," the statement reads.
