The Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 was an act of the United States Congress that facilitated the supply of materiel to the Ukrainian government in a manner similar to the World War II Lend-Lease Act in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1]
Ukrainian diplomats worked hard to extend the Lend-Lease program beyond September 2023, but it expired on September 30.[2] As of October 1, 2023, the act has been terminated since the fiscal year of 2023 has been over, without any use of Lend-Lease.[3]
