US commits $66 billion in security assistance to Ukraine amid Iran conflict

The United States has committed approximately $66 billion in security assistance to Ukraine from 2022 to 2025, alongside $130 billion in other aid. As the conflict with Iran escalated in February 2026, the U.S. military has deployed significant resources, including advanced weaponry, raising concerns about the strain on military readiness. The costs of the Iran conflict have reached about $37.5 billion, with further funding requests expected. Experts highlight the differing types of weapons used in both conflicts and suggest that Iran may be exploiting the U.S. political situation to prolong its military engagements.
