Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba: "I spoke with Antony Blinken and thanked the United States for the recent military aid package, which will help our people resist Russian aggression. I emphasized the need and urgency of continued U.S. and international support for Ukraine, including air defense and artillery ammunition. We cannot allow Russia to use delays in aid to advance, putting all of Europe and the democratic world at risk of an even larger war. We discussed ways forward to approve the critically needed supplemental. Ukraine has demonstrated repeatedly in recent years that with sufficient support, we can defeat Russia on the battlefield. Failure to continue supporting Ukraine would severely undermine the U.S. leadership all across the world and jeopardize American national security. We also exchanged views on the anticipated outcomes of the NATO Washington summit later this year".
