Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke by phone today with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dymtro Kuleba to reaffirm the United States’ robust support for Ukraine in the face of an increasingly acute threat of possible further Russian aggression.  The Secretary underscored that any and all aggression against Ukraine by Russia will be met with swift, severe, and united consequences.  The Secretary briefed on global efforts to urge de-escalation and enhance defense and deterrence measures against Russia’s unprovoked and continued build-up of troops and equipment in Ukraine and around its borders.  He reinforced that Ukraine continues to have the United States’ enduring and steadfast support for its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
