Today, US Senator Tim Kaine, a Democrat, arrived in Ukraine. He arrived in Kyiv, according to the US Embassy in Ukraine.
The US Embassy in Ukraine reported that on Monday, April 14, US Senator Tim Kaine arrived in Kyiv on a visit.
As a reminder, Tim Kaine has been a senator from Virginia since 2013. He is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and one of the leading voices in foreign policy.
He has repeatedly expressed support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.
In his previous statements, Kaine has emphasized that the security of Europe is critical to US national interests.
US assistance to Ukraine
Under the previous US President Joe Biden, Ukraine received strong military support from America.
Senator Tim Kaine, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, warned in 2024 that the package approved by the Senate at that time was likely to face a serious obstacle in the House of Representatives, where more and more Republicans opposed additional aid to Ukraine.
However, the situation with US support changed after Donald Trump became president. In early March, Trump decided to pause providing American aid to Ukraine. This was the aid that his predecessor, Joe Biden, had ordered to be allocated.
The United States has reduced it. And the main assistance comes from partners in Europe.
