As stated by Spokesperson Matthew Miller:
Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken met today with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha in Brussels. The Secretary underscored U.S. commitment to ensuring Ukraine is in the strongest possible position on the battlefield by the end of 2024. He reaffirmed U.S. readiness to ramp up training of Ukrainian forces and improve Kyiv's ability to defend against Russian air attacks through enhanced capabilities. The Secretary and Foreign Minister signed a memorandum of understanding in support of Ukraine's energy resilience, which reflects U.S. intent to provide $825 million in new U.S. energy assistance to Ukraine. The two also discussed Ukraine's irreversible path to full Euro-Atlantic integration, including NATO membership, and the direct threat Russia's aggression poses to Allies' security. The Secretary reaffirmed U.S. support for Ukraine and its people as they fight to defend their sovereignty and freedom.
