New U.S. lawmakers, Democrats pledging continued Ukraine support – Zelenskyy
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he expects continued support for Ukraine from the United States, as, according to him, new members of Congress and representatives of the Democratic Party assured him that they remain on Ukraine's side and do not intend to balance between Kyiv and Moscow.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has expressed confidence in continued U.S. support, citing new members of Congress and Democrats who pledged their continued solidarity with Ukraine. Speaking to CNN, Zelenskyy stated that these lawmakers are not attempting to balance between Ukraine and Russia, emphasizing their stance against Russia as an aggressor and their refusal to cede Ukrainian territory to President Putin.
Zelenskyy highlighted the importance of bipartisan U.S. support for Ukraine, particularly as the country prepares for a challenging period due to ongoing large-scale Russian attacks using Iranian drones, ballistic, and cruise missiles. These attacks have targeted civilian infrastructure, energy facilities, and schools, prompting the president to stress the urgency of receiving increased support.
The foreign minister recently noted that Ukraine anticipates a strengthening of U.S. support following the midterm elections to the U.S. Congress, and diplomatic talks on security issues are expected in Abu Dhabi.
