She stated this at a briefing in Kyiv, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“I have to say that I leave Kyiv tonight more encouraged about the unity and the resolve about 2024 and its absolute strategic importance for Ukraine. I also leave more confident that even as Ukraine strengthens its defenses, Mr. Putin is going to get some nice surprises on the battlefield and that Ukraine will make some very strong success this year," Nuland said.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, U.S. Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland arrived in Kyiv on Wednesday, January 31.
