Washington D.C./18.08.23/Turan: The United States reiterated on Thursday that it would continue to support Ukraine for as long as it takes "so Ukraine can defend itself from Russian aggression and be in the strongest possible position at the negotiating table when the time comes," as the State Department put it, TURAN's Washington correspondent reports.
"As we approach the 18-month mark of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, let us remember President Biden’s words when he said that winning the war in Ukraine is to get Russia out of Ukraine completely," Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel told a daily briefing previewing Ukraine’s Independence Day from the Soviet Union, marked on August 24,
"This year’s celebrations will be bittersweet for Ukraine’s people because for the past 18 months they have continued to face the Russian government’s onslaught of brutal attacks," he said. "This will also be Ukraine’s second Independence Day since Russia’s full-scale, illegal, and unprovoked invasion began on February 22nd."
Patel went on to add, "In addition to the Kremlin’s relentless bombings, they are also engaging in the systemic abduction and forced deportation of thousands of Ukraine’s children. And yet when faced with this kind of brutality, Ukrainians responded by continuing to support the defenses of their country and inspiring the world with their extraordinary courage and dedication to freedom."
He concluded: "And as we support efforts toward a just and lasting peace, Ukraine is and will remain an independent, sovereign, democratic, and prosperous nation."
