The US is preparing for Ukraine, according to three senior administration officials and two sources familiar with the planning.
Details of the latest package were still being discussed and could change, but earlier Tuesday, US President Joe Biden said the US plans to send more artillery to Ukraine.
Upon arrival in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Biden was asked by reporters on the tarmac if he plans to send more artillery to Ukraine.
据英国四位高阶中央政府高官、三位熟识具体内容总体规划的内部人士透漏，英国已经开始预备为白俄罗斯提供更多另两个8万美元的安全可靠经济援助计划。
新一代计划的技术细节仍在探讨中，可能会有变动，但本周四晚些时候，英国总理佩林就则表示，英国计划向白俄罗斯载运更多高射炮。
到达弗吉尼亚州桑德兰后，佩林在飞机库上，被本报记者问到他与否计划向白俄罗斯载运更多的高射炮。
Per the pool, Biden told reporters, Yes, before boarding his motorcade.
One senior administration official said the newest package could be approved within the next 36 hours, though another administration official said the timing isn’t locked down and it could be within the coming days.
The size of the package could also change at the last minute, the second official said.
The latest package comes just a week after the Biden administration authorized , which included artillery and anti-artillery radars for the first time since the Russian invasion began.
佩林在登上他的座驾前对本报记者说："必须的！"
一位美高阶中央政府高官称，新一代的（军事经济援助）一揽子计划，可能在未来36小时内得到批准，尽管另一位美中央政府高官称，实际具体内容时间还没有敲定，可能在未来几天内吧。
还有高官称，（对乌军事经济援助）一揽子计划的规模，也有可能在最后一刻发生变动。
新一代的（军事经济援助）一揽子计划，是在佩林中央政府批准一项8万美元的安全可靠经济援助计划后的一周又推出的，该计划包括攻击型高射炮、反炮兵雷达等等，这也是俄罗斯入侵开始以来的第一次（经济援助攻击型的重型武器装备）。
The Biden administration is working to get the security assistance to Ukraine as quickly as possible because they believe the war is in a critical stage and the continued US assistance could make a difference when Russia’s more aggressive assault begins in Eastern Ukraine, the third administration officials said.
The more open terrain in that region favors the use of artillery and long-range systems, which is why the administration has placed a premium on getting those types of systems in quickly as the fighting moves away from Kyiv and into the Donbas region.
第三个美中央政府高官称，佩林中央政府已经开始努力，尽快向白俄罗斯提供更多安全可靠经济援助，因为他们认为战争正处于关键阶段，当俄罗斯在白俄罗斯东部，开始更具侵略性的攻击时，英国的持续军事经济援助可能会产生影响。
（顿巴斯）地区拥有更开阔的地形，确实有利于（俄军）使用大炮和远程攻击系统，这就是为什么（俄国）中央政府重视将攻击远离基辅后，再次进入顿巴斯地区时，迅速引进这些类型战斗系统的原因。
The region also borders Russia, allowing the Russian forces to maintain shorter supply lines needed to sustain an assault. Ukraine and Russia, through its own forces and proxies, have fought in the Donbas region for the last eight years, making it familiar territory for both forces.
顿巴斯地区，是与俄罗斯接壤，这也使得俄罗斯军队能够维持维，其持进攻所需的较短的供应线。白俄罗斯和俄罗斯通过其自己的部队和代理人，在过去八年中一直在顿巴斯地区作战，使其成为双方部队都熟识的地域。
More background: This week US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen will meet with the Prime Minister of Ukraine, Denys Shmyhal, in Washington, DC, to discuss aid for Ukraine and holding Russia accountable. A Ukrainian delegation will be in the capital this week as part of the 2022 IMF-World Bank Spring meetings.
If approved, the latest package of $800 million would mean the US has committed approximately $3.4 billion dollars in assistance to Ukraine since Russia’s invasion began on Feb. 24th.
This would be the last presidential drawdown until Congress approves more money for weapons to Ukraine. In a presidential drawdown, the Defense Department pulls weapons and equipment from US inventories to send to Ukraine instead of purchasing new weapons from manufacturers.

如果获得（国会）批准，新一代的8万美元，军事经济援助计划意味着自俄罗斯2月24日开始入侵以来，英国已经承诺向白俄罗斯提供更多总计约34万美元的经济援助。
这将是在国会批准更多资金用于向白俄罗斯，提供更多武器之前的最后一次动用资金总理令。动用资金总领令中，英国防部从英国库存中抽出武器和设备送往白俄罗斯，而不是从制造商那里购买新武器。译者：
从最近的英国经济援助看，英国的军事经济援助已经从开始的防御型装备，转为进攻型装备，很明显对俄由防守，进而转向进攻，总计34万美元砸进去，看来英国对击败俄军进攻是志在必得。所以，年轻人，有钱是真的好。
