President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba have responded to the approval of a bill in the US Senate that provides $60 billion in support for Ukraine.
"I am grateful to @SenSchumer, @LeaderMcConnell, and every US Senator who has supported continued assistance to Ukraine as we fight for freedom, democracy, and the values we all hold dear," Zelenskyy tweeted. "For us in Ukraine, continued US assistance helps to save human lives from Russian terror. It means that life will continue in our cities and will triumph over war."
He added: "American assistance brings just peace in Ukraine closer and restores global stability, resulting in increased security and prosperity for all Americans and all the free world."
Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba thanked the USA for "supporting not only additional assistance for Ukraine but also America's global posture and strength".
"This signal of unwavering bipartisan support is greatly needed and appreciated. We anticipate further steps to counter Russian aggression, bring just peace in Ukraine closer, and maintain the international order that the United States helped to establish and that protects all Americans and other free nations," he tweeted.
