Original Note:
The Pentagon did not 'overpay' $6.2 billion, rather it incorrectly estimated the cost of equipment and munitions provided to Ukraine as being higher than the actual value. The $6.2 billion of equipment remains in possession of the Pentagon pending a further transfer. https://apnews.com/article/ukraine-russia-war-weapons-surplus-funding-72eeb6119439146f1939d5b1973a44ef
