While Ukraine has been waiting for a decision on a giant Ukraine package in the House of Representatives for close to half a year, the Biden administration is said to have integrated the advanced weapons system into an additional grant of three billion kroner, which the Pentagon had been given the go-ahead to use in March.

The Biden administration is said to have warned Russia already last year that this could happen. Moscow must then have received a clear message that if the Russians acquired and used long-range ballistic missiles from North Korea against Ukrainian targets, the US would provide the same military capacity to Ukraine.
