US and UK Pledge Almost $1.5 Billion in Aid for Ukraine
ai generated text
US and UK have pledged significant economic aid to Ukraine, with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announcing over $700 million in humanitarian aid and UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy confirming an additional $782 million in loan guarantees. The aid is aimed at bolstering Ukraine's energy grid, which has been repeatedly targeted by Russia. The US and UK have also taken steps to strengthen Ukraine's electricity infrastructure, with the US providing support to this end.
We rely heavily on it, and frankly, we can't prevail without it.
If partners support it, it will make it easier for Ukraine to force Russia to end the war.
Russia's use of weapons from its terrorist allies to strike at Ukraine continues their genocidal war and terrorism on our territory. We must be able to respond to such terrorism in kind by destroying military targets on their territory to ensure greater safety for our citizens.
It is important to lift any restrictions on the use of US and British weapons against legitimate military targets in Russia.
We convey the deepest condolences for the shocking attacks that we have seen, over the loss of civilian life, particularly women and children — horrific, barbaric, unbelievable.
Support for Ukraine will endure because it doesn't depend on any one country, any one party, any one election.
I don't believe one capability is going to be decisive, and I stand by that comment.
Putin will not outlast the coalition of countries committed to Ukraine's success, and he is certainly not going to outlast the Ukrainian people.
The bottom line is this: We want Ukraine to win.
Speaking for the United States, we have adjusted and adapted as needs have changed, as the battlefield has changed. And I have no doubt that we'll continue to do that as this evolves.
Our support will not wane, our unity will not break.
We have adjusted and adapted as needs have changed, the battlefield has changed, and I have no doubt we will continue.
