This was stated by the head of the President’s Office, Andriy Yermak.

He noted that he had consulted with advisors to the leaders of Great Britain, France, and Germany, as well as with the deputy diplomatic advisor to the Prime Minister of Italy.

“We discussed the preparation of a historic bilateral security agreement between Ukraine and the United States,” Yermak stated.

At the same time, the head of the President’s Office clarified that the agreement includes provisions for financial support from European partners.
