The US State Department believes that Ukraine will emerge from the war as an "independent, strong, economically developed and Western-oriented state".
Ukraine will independent and strong after emerging from the war
Both unilateral and bilateral events will take place on the battlefield, and each side will gain or lose territory. But if you look at the ultimate goal of this war, it is clear that Ukraine will emerge from it as an independent, strong, improved economy and Western-oriented state, said the US State Department spokesman, Matthew Miller.
At the same time, Miller reminded that from the very beginning, Russia wanted Ukraine to be part of Russia not only in the east.
I think people often forget about the real stakes in this war and what Vladimir Putin's real goal was, and what Ukraine actually achieved and continues to achieve. Remember that Putin started this war as a war of total conquest in which he wanted to take over Ukraine, Miller said.
Aid to Ukraine from USA
The US Congress did not support Biden's request to allocate more than $100 billion for national security needs by the end of 2023. This request includes more than $60 billion for Ukraine.
The main stumbling block was the Republicans, who refused to support the initiative. They demanded that the White House include their proposals for strengthening border security in the request.
On 20 December, it became known that Congress went on holiday without approving Biden's request. At the same time, the funds allocated to help Ukraine remained in the US for one military aid package.
