The below is attributable to Spokesperson Matthew Miller:
Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy today in Davos, Switzerland. They discussed the importance of continued global assistance to support Ukraine as it fights for its freedom and sovereignty. They also spoke about efforts to support Ukraine’s economic resilience and recovery, including through private sector investment. The three additionally discussed ongoing anti-corruption reform efforts to bolster Ukraine’s economic recovery and continue its trajectory towards Euro-Atlantic integration. Secretary Blinken and National Security Advisor Sullivan strongly reiterated the United States’ enduring support for Ukraine and its territorial integrity in the face of Russia’s illegal war of aggression.
Russia’s illegal war in Ukraine is nearly 2 years old. Other NATO nations are beefing up defenses as the Russians threaten to march through Ukraine and continue west. An attack on one NATO nation is viewed by the organization as an attack on all.
I met with @SecBlinken to thank the United States, President Biden, Congress, and the American people for their unwavering support and leadership in supporting Ukraine.
We count on continued U.S. support, which is essential for our country.
