The Senate unanimously passed major legislation late Wednesday to revive a World War II-era program allowing President Joe Biden to more efficiently send weapons and other supplies to Ukraine amid Russia’s bloody invasion, writes POLITICO.
Senators quickly rallied behind the proposal, known as Lend-Lease, as Ukraine’s military proved it could fend off Russian troops who have been shelling Ukrainian cities and towns since late February. The Lend-Lease program created during World War II was seen as a game-changer in the conflict, as it allowed the U.S. to quickly resupply the Allies without time-consuming procedural hurdles.
Lawmakers are resorting to extraordinary tactics last used during the most significant global conflict of the 20th century – yet another sign that the U.S. and its allies in Europe believe Russia’s invasion presents an existential threat to liberal order.

U.S. Senate Passes Law On Rapid Supply Of Weapons To Ukraine
The U.S. Senate unanimously passed a major bill late Wednesday to relaunch a World War II program that would allow President Joe Biden to more effectively send weapons and other supplies to Ukraine amid a Russian invasion.
About this, as European Pravda writes, Politico reports.
The senators were quick to back the proposal, known as lend-lease, as the Ukrainian military proved they could fend off Russian troops that have been shelling Ukrainian cities since late February. The lend-lease program, established during World War II, was considered a watershed in the course of the war, as it allowed the U.S. to quickly resupply allies without time-consuming procedural obstacles.
Lawmakers are resorting to extraordinary tactics last seen during the biggest global conflict of the 20th century – that is another sign that the U.S. and its allies in Europe see the Russian invasion as an existential threat to the liberal order.
The document, known as the Lend-Lease Law on the Defense of Ukraine’s Democracy of 2022, will expedite the transfer of important military equipment and other critical supplies to Ukraine by reducing red tape….
