The United States will continue to supply Ukraine with weapons until Russia withdraws troops from its territory, according to the Deputy United States Permanent Representative to International Organizations Robert Wood.

According to Wood, the international community's participation in the Ukraine peace summit to be held in Switzerland is in line with the UN Security Council's goals of maintaining international peace and security.

He said, that until Russia stopped its attacks and withdrew its troops from Ukraine, the United States would provide Ukraine with everything necessary to defend its country.

US assistance to Ukraine

Recently, the US Congress passed a law that provides over $60 billion in military aid to Ukraine.

After a long pause, the US has started to provide Ukraine with military aid packages that include armored vehicles, artillery shells, and air defense missiles.

During a visit to Kyiv last week, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced another $2 billion aid package for Ukraine.
