Two top U.S. officials met with Ukraine’s president in Kyiv over the weekend, pledging continued support for the country as it defends itself against Russia.

“Our focus in the meeting was to talk about those things that would enable us to win the current fight and also build for tomorrow,” U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin told reporters in Poland on April 25. “We talked about security force assistance, and we talked about training, and we also talked about the key things that we’re going to discuss in the session that I'll conduct tomorrow at Ramstein with a number of ministers of defense and chiefs of defense.”
