He added that Ukrainian forces continue to remain steadfast.
They continue to repulse the assault [on the Kremlin] and inflict heavy losses on the Russian occupiers. So, make no mistake, the United States will not give up our support for a free and sovereign Ukraine, - emphasized the head of the US Ministry of Defense.
