Putin Isn’t Fighting for Land in Ukraine
And Biden has mere weeks to give the Ukrainians the resources they need to fight.
..
“Land for peace” sounds nice, but the president of Russia isn’t fighting for land. Putin is fighting not to conquer Pokrovsk but to destroy Ukraine as a nation. He wants to show his own people that Ukraine’s democratic aspirations are hopeless.

Was the PDA extended?
“We have $5.9 billion left in Ukraine Presidential Drawdown Authority; all but $100 million of which will expire at the end of the fiscal year,” said Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, in an email to The Hill.
“The Department will continue to provide drawdown packages in the near future and is working with Congress to seek an extension of PDA authorities beyond the end of the fiscal year.”
No it must not. The Pentagon plans a lot of things. Until you start seeing them take billion dollar things out of the armories, it's not a "must have been done".
The other thing that could say it has been done is Congress extending the PDA.
@Lulz4l1f3 Not that I'm aware of.
CORTECTION: It must have been extended.
