Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said he is confident that the United States could be a leader among the future guarantors of Ukraine's security.

He said this in a video address, speaking about the results of his meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin who arrived in Kyiv, Ukrinform reports.

"Discussions on security guarantees for Ukraine continued. I am convinced that the United States can be a leader among the future countries - guarantors of Ukraine's security. The main goal for all of us is to make Europe and the world safer after the war, to ensure that the security architecture works in the event of any new threats," Zelensky said.

He also said that financial support for Ukraine was discussed at the meeting.

"When tyranny has enormous financial resources from oil and gas exports, the issue of financial support for freedom becomes vital. I heard a full understanding of this position from American friends. Not only in the context of helping Ukraine now, during the war, but also for the post-war reconstruction," Zelensky said.
