Sullivan visited Kyiv and met with Yermak: details

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said at a press conference after a meeting with the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Andriy Yermak, that the bill to finance aid to Ukraine is likely to be passed. But he could not give a specific terms, Ukrinform reports.


"I am confident that we will be able to get strong bipartisan support when the House of Representatives votes on the aid to Ukraine. That's why I don't think we should be talking about Plan B today," Sullivan said.


At the same time, he emphasized that the issue of approving aid to Ukraine "has already taken a very long time." Sullivan did not predict when this process would be completed, but assured that the US is working to make sure that everything happens as soon as possible.


"President Biden is working on it every day to push this package through the House. But I can't make any specific predictions," he said.


In addition, Sullivan said that the US presidential administration is not yet ready to announce the delivery of ATACMS missiles.


"Regarding ATACMS, I have to disappoint you by saying that I have nothing to announce publicly on this topic today," Sullivan said.


In addition, Sullivan considers Ukraine's victory to be the exit from the war as a sovereign, democratic and free country, without mentioning the restoration of territorial integrity - that is, Ukraine's return to the 1991 borders.


He also said that "Russia has already lost this war" because the plans that Putin outlined at the beginning of the war "have not been fulfilled and never will be."


"We believe that Russia has already lost this war. What was Russia going to do? Wipe Ukraine off the map. To erase from history the very idea of being a Ukrainian. It has failed," Sullivan said.
