The visits come two weeks after Blinken visited Ukraine, where he assured Kyiv of Washington’s support in the face of escalating Russian attacks in the country’s north.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is traveling to Europe, where he will discuss military support for Ukraine in countering Russian aggression. Reuters wrote this on Friday, May 24.
It is indicated that he will visit the Czech Republic and Moldova from May 28 to May 31.
In Prague, the head of American diplomacy will participate in an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers. He will also meet with Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky and other officials to discuss additional support for Ukraine, joint defense modernization and deepening energy ties.
According to US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs James O’Brien, the decisions to be made at the July NATO summit in Washington will be prepared at the meeting.
“We do not expect that Ukraine will receive an invitation to join NATO, but we believe that there will be a significant show of support for Ukraine in its quest to win the war,” he said.
According to O’Brien, it is about NATO’s support for the development of Ukraine’s future armed forces and efforts to help the country carry out the reforms necessary for the country’s accession to the European Union and NATO.
According to the agency, during his visit to Moldova, Blinken will discuss US support for the country’s progress towards joining the EU and energy security.
