US Funds Printing of 3M Textbooks for Ukraine

The United States, through USAID, will support Ukraine in printing over three million textbooks for elementary school students following Russian attacks on Ukrainian printing houses, aiming to disrupt education. This initiative, costing approximately $8 million, is part of US efforts to aid Ukraine in its defense against Russia's aggression. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan emphasized the importance of standing with Ukraine amidst the conflict. The US administration has adjusted policies to bolster Ukraine's military capabilities and prioritize air defense, including potential strikes into Russian territory. The funding signifies a broader strategy to support Ukraine's education system and cultural resilience amidst the ongoing conflict with Russia.
