**POLICY JUSTIFICATION**
**Ukraine—Transportation and Consolidation Services**
The Government of Ukraine has requested to buy transportation and consolidation services in support of security assistance programs and other related elements of logistics and program support. The estimated total cost is $99.5 million.
This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the United States (U.S.) by improving the ability of Ukraine to provide for its own defense.
The proposed sale will improve Ukraine's capability to meet current and future threats by further equipping it to conduct self-defense and regional security missions through transportation and consolidation services. Ukraine will have no difficulty absorbing these services into its armed forces.
The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.
The principal contractor(s) will be determined from approved vendors. At this time, the U.S. Government is not aware of any offset agreement proposed in connection with this potential sale. Any offset agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the contractor.
Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Ukraine.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.
