Speaking at a news conference on the border with Poland after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the US top diplomat added that a “sovereign, independent Ukraine” will be around “a lot longer than Russia’s Putin is on the scene”. Washinton has approved a £130m sale of ammunition to Ukraine, along with £251m in foreign military financing. “The strategy that we’ve put in place – massive support for Ukraine, massive pressure against Russia, solidarity with more than 30 countries engaged in these efforts – is having real results,” he said. “When it comes to Russia’s war aims, Russia is failing, Ukraine is succeeding. “Russia has sought as its principal aim to totally subjugate Ukraine, to take away its sovereignty, to take away its independence. That has failed.” He said Russia “sought to assert the power of its military and its economy” but were seeing “just the opposite: a military that is dramatically underperforming, an economy – as a result of sanctions, as a result of a mass exodus from Russia – that is in shambles.” He also said Russia’s attempt to “divide the West and NATO” had failed. Blinken also confirmed that US diplomats would soon return to Ukraine next week to take up positions in its embassy in Kyiv.
