According to him, America is looking for ways to help Kiev in the support of Russia without forcing him to certain actions. The White House representative noted that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy should determine how and when the war will end. "You will be absolutely dissatisfied with my answer. The President Zelensky should determine how and when this war is over, as well as on what conditions he is ready to negotiate with Putin," Kirby said.
He also stressed that the number of Russian troops is increasing now, and Putin will probably not be waiting for spring, but will continue to take offensive actions. Therefore, Ukraine should have more opportunities not only for protection, but also in order to go on a counter -offensive. To do this, he said, new financing should be approved.
We will remind, on December 6 the bill, which provides for the allocation of funds for assistance to Ukraine in the field of security, was blocked in the US Senate. The reason for the blocking of the law was the position of representatives of the Republican Party, which insist on harder measures to control immigration on the US border with Mexico.
