The head of state emphasized that after the US Congress supports the provision of an aid package to Ukraine, "we will come to a powerful agreement with the US."

I would like people to understand that it is not only about military support, it is also about humanitarian aspects, reconstruction, financial support, energy. The full scope of this powerful assistance is in bilateral agreements.

The president assured that the state will continue to sign security guarantees with partners.

At the same time, he noted that Ukraine is getting closer to signing security agreements with the Baltic partner countries.

I think that in April we will have such a result with one of the countries. We can have powerful contracts in May. I think that in May-June we will enter into agreements not only with the USA, but also with the Nordic countries. We are preparing for Sweden and Norway.
