The Biden administration is trying to blame President Donald Trump for its catastrophic failure of running out of ammunition.
Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration also revealed that the military will not replenish the stockpile of cluster bombs.
The U.S. was forced to send the controversial munitions to Ukraine after the Biden admin ran out of ammo.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said: โWell, when we came into office we found that the overall stock for 155 mm ammunition was relatively low, but more importantly we discovered that the ability to mass produce that ammunition would take not weeks but years.
โWe began that process months ago was we anticipated the need for continuing to supply Ukraine, but it takes time and that is why we need a bridge from today.
โWe need to ensure that Ukraine has the necessary supply of ammunition for a few months down the road.
โWe believe we can supply enough of the unitary round to meet Ukraineโs defense needs.
โOur moral authority and Ukraineโs moral authority in this conflict comes from the fact that we are supporting a country under brutal, vicious attack by its neighbor with missiles and bombs raining down in its cities, killing its civilians, destroying its schools, itโs churches, its hospitals,โ he said about sending the cluster munitions.
โOur current plan is not to replenish that stockpile,โ Sullivan added.
โIt is rather to build up the capacity to produce the unitary round of the 155, the non-cluster munition round of ammunition.
โThe idea that providing Ukraine with a weapon in order for them to be able to defend their homeland, protect their civilians is somehow a challenge for moral authority I find questionable,โ he added about the backlash the admin has received over sending the cluster bombs.
