Subject to paragraph (2), for the period of fiscal years 2025 through 2035, the President may authorize the United States Government to lend or lease defense articles to the Government of Ukraine or to governments of Eastern European countries impacted by the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine to help bolster those countries' defense capabilities and protect their civilian populations from potential invasion or ongoing aggression by the armed forces of the Government of the Russian Federation. For the purposes of the authority described in paragraph
(1)as that authority relates to Ukraine, the following provisions of law shall not apply: Section 503(b)(3) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 ( 22 U.S.C. 2311(b)(3) ). Section 61 of the Arms Export Control Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2796 ). Any loan or lease of defense articles to the Government of Ukraine under paragraph
(1)shall be subject to all applicable laws concerning the return of and reimbursement and repayment for defense articles loan or leased to foreign governments. The President may delegate the enhanced authority under this subsection only to an official appointed by the President by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. Not later than 60 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the President shall establish expedited procedures for the delivery of any defense article loaned or leased to the Government of Ukraine under an agreement entered into under subsection
(a)to ensure timely delivery of the article to that Government. In this section, the term defense article has the meaning given that term in section 47 of the Arms Export Control Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2794 ). It is the sense of Congress that the President should utilize the authorities provided by this section where applicable but in such a manner that does not conflict or interfere with the drawdown authorities provided under section 506 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 ( 22 U.S.C. 2318 ).
