The Head of the President's Office sincerely thanked the US President and his Administration, both houses of Congress and both parties and the entire American people for their unwavering support for Ukraine in its struggle for independence and territorial integrity, as well as for freedom and democratic values in Europe.
US aid to Ukraine
The US has not provided military and financial assistance to Ukraine for several months. This is because Congress has not yet allocated the necessary funds for this purpose.
