The remaining supplies are planned to be used exclusively for the needs of the U.S. <\/p>\n
U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Gegset stated that the current issues with the country’s military supplies are a result of decisions made by the previous administration, particularly regarding the transfer of weapons to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In Washington, there is an increasing discussion about the need to replenish weapon supplies and reassess their usage priorities.<\/p>\n In particular, the Pentagon has already approached the White House with a request to coordinate a request to Congress for more than $200 billion to fund the war against Iran, indicating the scale of the needs and rising expenditures.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The remaining supplies are planned to be used exclusively for the needs of the U.S. U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Gegset stated that the current issues with the country’s military stockpiles are a result of decisions made by the previous administration, particularly regarding the transfer of weapons to Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":63771,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"magazine_newspaper_sidebar_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63851","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-analytics-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
