A lease from the United States will not lead to a huge debt in Ukraine after the war.
This was stated in an interview with European pravda by US Chargé dʼAffaires Christina Quinn.
According to her, contrary to its name (lend — to lend with interest, lease — to lease), Washington does not say "that Ukraine should return everything it receives under this mechanism."
"The idea of a lease is different. Frankly, this is just a procedure to speed up the supply of weapons. Therefore, of course, the lease will not lead to the emergence of any huge debt in Ukraine after the war, "- said Queen.
- On April 7, the United States Senate unanimously approved a land lease law for Ukraine
- On April 28, the US House of Representatives approved the document, and on May 9, it was signed by US President Joe Biden.
