Lloyd Austin, the US Secretary of Defense, said that he assured his Ukrainian counterpart that the United States of America (USA) would continue their support for Ukraine’s efforts to confront the Russian invasion, according to urgent news broadcast by Al-Arabiya TV a short time ago.
The US Secretary of Defense added that his country was united with partners to support Ukraine, including militarily.
Earlier, the Russian army continued its advance in Ukrainian territory, towards the capital, Kyiv, for the sixth day in a row, after it managed, on Tuesday, to control the city of Kherson in southern Ukraine near the Crimea Peninsula.
On the other hand, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin set 5 demands in exchange for a ceasefire.
