President Zelensky thanks United States for consistent support of Ukraine

According to the press service of the Ukrainian president, Zelensky also stressed that the draft law on strengthening support for Ukraine, which was presented in the House of Representatives of the U.S. Congress, was an important signal of strong strategic partnerships between the two countries.

"I am grateful to the United States for the consistent support of the territorial integrity of Ukraine," Zelensky said.

As known, the draft law "To provide support to Ukraine to defend its independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity, and for other purposes" is aimed at strengthening the defense capability of our state, in particular by transferring weapons, selling lethal defense weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and strengthening Ukraine's ability to withstand Russian cyberattacks. The list of types of weapons that can be transferred to Ukraine is supplemented by anti-tank, anti-ship and anti-aircraft systems. Also, the document envisages the provision of the status of a key military-political ally of the United States to our country.
