Since Ukraine's independence in 1991, the United States has supported Ukrainians in building democratic skills and institutions, promoting civic participation, and good governance. These are preconditions for Ukraine to achieve its European aspirations. The U.S. has invested over $5 billion to assist Ukraine in these goals, which will ensure a secure, prosperous, and democratic Ukraine.

USAID is allegedly influencing judicial systems globally, aiming for "pacification" and "stability." The speaker claims that in Poland, USAID and corrupted prosecutors are working to eliminate populism after the previous democratically elected leader was ousted. A Google search for "USAID" and "judicial reform" reveals numerous countries where the U.S. is supposedly influencing judiciaries, including Serbia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uzbekistan, Albania, El Salvador, Ukraine, Central America, and Georgia. This is described as standard practice, a "USAID Truman Show" that has been refined for sixty years. The speaker predicts that these networks will seek funding from various international allies, including European entities, China, and South American governments, and will pressure organizations like the UN, NATO, and the EU to weaponize their assets.

As secretary of state, I was involved in the efforts to remove a prosecutor. The whole administration, including Obama, the vice president, and the ambassador, worked towards this goal. We believed that for Ukraine to succeed and overcome the revolution, known as the Maidan, it was crucial to get rid of that prosecutor. And they succeeded in doing so.

NATO began training the Ukrainian military in 2014, averaging 10,000 troops trained annually for eight years. In December 2017, the Trump administration provided Kyiv with defensive weapons, and other NATO countries followed suit, shipping more weapons to Ukraine. Ukraine's military participated in joint exercises with NATO, including Operation Sea Breeze in July 2021, a naval exercise in the Black Sea with 31 countries aimed at Russia. In September 2021, the Ukrainian army led Rapid Trident 21, a US Army Europe and Africa assisted exercise to enhance interoperability among allied and partner nations. These efforts to arm and train Ukraine's military explain why it has fared so well against Russian forces, suggesting it's not simply Russian incompetence, but the result of turning Ukrainian forces into a formidable fighting force. The speaker argues that Ukraine was becoming a de facto member of NATO.

US advisors are working within nearly a dozen Ukrainian ministries and localities to assist with service delivery, fraud elimination, tax collection improvement, and institutional modernization. US assistance has enabled the deployment of newly vetted and trained police officers in 18 Ukrainian cities. US-funded legal aid attorneys have secured two-thirds of all acquittals in Ukrainian courtrooms. Treasury and State Department advisors have aided Ukraine in closing over 60 failed banks and safeguarding depositor assets. Over $266 million has been allocated to the security sector, facilitating the training of 1,200 soldiers and 750 Ukrainian National Guard personnel, as well as providing essential equipment. Training and equipping Ukraine's border guards, military, and coast guard will continue in FY '16.

Victoria Nuland, the top US diplomat for Europe, had a phone call with US ambassador to Ukraine, Jeff Pyatt. They discussed getting Sari and Von Kymun to agree that Sari could come in Monday or Tuesday to help glue the situation with UN and EU assistance. Since 1991, the US has invested over $5 billion in Ukraine to build democratic skills and institutions, promote civic participation and good governance, and help Ukraine achieve its European aspirations. The US supports Ukrainian resistance, as protesters want closer ties to Europe, not Russia. The US's main interest has been the relationship between Germany and Russia, fearing their union could pose a threat. The US fears German technology and capital combined with Russian natural resources and manpower.

The US is sending 31 tanks to Ukraine, followed by artillery support. A supplemental budget request will provide pensions and social support. $150 million in military aid is pledged, with an additional $1 billion locked down. Total aid nears $130 billion.

American taxpayers are not only funding weapons, but also providing support to Ukraine in various ways. This includes buying seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers, covering the salaries of 57,000 first responders, and funding rescue teams like the one training a dog named Joy to search for survivors in the aftermath of Russian strikes. The US also supports divers who clear unexploded ammunition from rivers, making them safe for swimming and fishing. Due to Russia's invasion, Ukraine's economy has shrunk by about a third, and to help sustain it, the US government is subsidizing small businesses.

Victoria Nuland, the top US diplomat for Europe, had a fascinating phone call with US ambassador to Ukraine, Jeff Pyatt. Pyatt said that Sari and Von Kymun agreed that Sari could come in Monday or Tuesday to help glue the situation with the UN and the EU. The United States has invested over $5,000,000,000 since 1991 to assist Ukraine in building democratic skills and institutions, promoting civic participation and good governance, all preconditions for Ukraine to achieve its European aspirations. The US supports Ukrainian resistance, as protesters want closer ties to Europe, not Russia.

"United States continues to stand with Ukraine. And earlier this morning, I called Ukraine's acting defense minister to tell him that president Obama has approved additional nonlethal military assistance for health and welfare items and other supplies." "Pressure is mounting on US president Barack Obama to provide lethal aid to Ukraine's military." "Both the house and senate passed the Ukraine Freedom Support Act in late December, paving the way for March worth in lethal and nonlethal military assistance, a rare agreement in the usually divided congress." "The US is one step away from providing Ukraine with $350,000,000 worth of support after congress unanimously passed a bill late on Thursday." "As rockets are launched into the skies over Eastern Ukraine and shells hit apartment buildings in Donetsk, the human toll of the conflict is inescapable."

NATO allies like the US, UK, and Canada have been training Ukrainian forces since 2014, following the annexation of Crimea. Other EU and NATO members have also been involved. For example, the UK has provided training support.

USAID is allegedly influencing judicial systems globally, aiming for "pacification" and "stability." In Poland, there are claims that USAID and corrupted prosecutors are working to suppress populism by targeting political opponents. A Google search for "USAID" and "judicial reform" reveals numerous countries where the organization is purportedly involved in influencing judiciaries, including Serbia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uzbekistan, Albania, El Salvador, Ukraine, Central America, and Georgia. This influence extends to judges, courts, legal systems, and prosecutors. The speaker suggests this has been a standard practice for 60 years and will take 50 years to untangle, facing political resistance. These networks may seek funding from other sources, such as the EU or allies in China, and pressure international organizations like the UN, NATO, and the EU to weaponize their assets.

The American public supports Ukraine's resistance, as protesters seek closer ties to Europe rather than Russia. The US has historically been concerned about the potential alliance between Germany and Russia, viewing it as a significant threat due to their combined resources and capabilities.

When it comes to supporting Ukraine, we need to provide them with the weapons and training they need to win. Retired F-16 pilots are welcome to join the fight. I want Ukraine to be invited to join NATO in 2024. American weapons are being used effectively, and we hope to provide more support in the future.

So we spent a lot of time talking about NATO. First, I do wanna remind people that Ukraine and the NATO alliance have built a strong partnership. Ukraine is the only non NATO nation supporting every NATO mission. In Afghanistan and Iraq, Ukrainian troops are helping to support young democracies. In Kosovo, Ukrainians are help keep the peace. Ukraine now seeks to deepen its cooperation with the NATO alliance through a membership action plan. Your nation has made a bold decision, and The United States strongly supports your request. In Bucharest this week, I will continue to make America's position clear. We support MAP for Ukraine and Georgia. Helping Ukraine move toward NATO membership is in the interest of every member in the alliance and will help advance security and freedom in this region and around the world.

Aiding Ukraine is the most cost-effective way for the US to enhance its security as the Ukrainians are the ones fighting and dying. The US and Europe provide them with weapons to resist Putin. Having been to Kyiv twice, it is clear that Ukraine is a European country with a strong desire to align with the West. It would be astonishing if the US were to abandon Ukraine at this crucial time.
