Determination Under Section 614(a)(1) and Section 506(a)(1) of 
the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 To Provide Military Assistance to 
Ukraine

    Pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 614(a)(1) of the 
Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (the ``Act'') (22 U.S.C. 2364(a)(1)) and 
Presidential Delegation of Authority dated May 19, 2022, I hereby 
determine that it is important to the security interests of the United 
States to furnish up to $100 million in assistance under the Act to 
Ukraine without regard to any other provision of law within the purview 
of section 614(a)(1) of the Act.
    In addition, pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 
506(a)(1) of the Act (22 U.S.C. 2318(a)(1)) and Presidential Delegation 
of Authority dated May 19, 2022, I also hereby determine that:
    <bullet> an unforeseen emergency exists which requires immediate 
military assistance to Ukraine; and
    <bullet> the emergency requirement cannot be met under the 
authority of the Arms Export Control Act or any other provision of law.
    I, therefore, pursuant to authority delegated to me by the 
President, direct the drawdown of up to $100 million in defense 
articles and services of the Department of Defense, and military 
education and training, under the authorities of section 614(a)(1) and 
section 506(a)(1) of the Act to provide assistance to Ukraine. The 
Department of State will coordinate implementation of this drawdown.
    This determination shall be reported to the Congress and published 
in the Federal Register.

    Dated: May 19, 2022.
Antony J. Blinken,
Secretary of State.
