"We want Ukraine to win this war and protect itself from Russian aggression."

APA reports that Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said this at an online briefing for foreign journalists.

He said Russia had failed to achieve its strategic goals in Ukraine and was moving from Kyiv to Belarus and Russia to re-equip and restructure its forces.

Russia has almost concentrated its main forces in the direction of the Donbas.

The gathering of more forces in a smaller area is likely to make the fighting in these areas more intense, more bloody and longer lasting. ”

John Kirby recalled that Ukraine has been fighting for the Donbas for eight years.

A Pentagon spokesman said more than 30 countries were providing military assistance to Ukraine.

The next batch of military aid will be delivered to Ukraine in the middle of this month.

We provide the support they need.

Dozens of Ukrainian servicemen have recently been trained in the United States, and our Defense Minister met with them before they left for their homeland.
