- More than 20 countries and the European Union provide Ukraine with military and political support, ensuring its stability in various aspects.
- The importance of bilateral agreements and bipartisan American support for Ukraine's freedom and independence is highlighted by Ukrainian President Zelenskyi.
- Despite potential changes in US administrations, the strong support for Ukraine in Congress and security agreements must be respected.

The USA is not the only powerful ally of Ukraine
Journalists asked the head of the State Department to comment on the possibility of Donald Trump's return to the White House, as well as what the consequences might be for Ukraine.
According to the diplomat, any new American administration will have to take into account the strong bilateral support of Ukraine in Congress.
Despite this, one should not forget that each administration has the right to conduct its own policy, but it should not ignore the security agreements signed with Ukraine, in addition to the United States, more than 20 countries and the European Union.
If we were to back away from that… I suspect it is possible, but luckily there are over 20 other countries that are doing the same.
