U.S. giving another $1.7 Billion to Ukraine!

Nuova Europa (Archived): US Treasury announces additional $1.7 bn aid to Ukraine.

For funding the country's "essential services".

Detroit News: Ukraine gets $1.7B in fresh aid to pay health care workers.

Ukraine is getting an additional $1.7 billion in assistance from the U.S. government and the World Bank to pay the salaries of its beleaguered health care workers and provide other essential services.

The money coming Tuesday from the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Treasury Department and the World Bank is meant to alleviate the acute budget deficit caused by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “brutal war of aggression,” USAID said in a statement.

The key word here is..."beleaguered."
