In the U.S. Congress they want to simplify the transfer of American weapons to Ukraine through third countries

Six members of Congress — three Democrats and three Republicans — introduced a bill that is intended to remove bureaucratic obstacles to such deliveries. This was reported by Radio Free Europe’s senior correspondent in Washington, Alex Raufoglu.

The bill proposes to amend the U.S. Arms Export Control Act. Currently, countries that purchased weapons from the U.S. cannot transfer them to third countries without Washington’s permission. The sponsors of the initiative want to eliminate this requirement for certain types of weapons that allies transfer to Ukraine.

This should reduce the ability of the Trump administration to delay such deliveries.
