The United States will provide Ukraine with new funding to help diversify its energy resources, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said.
“We are also discussing ways to ensure the security of energy supply to Ukraine. That includes providing new funding to help Ukraine diversify its energy resources, working with key allies and partners to bring to bear all available leverage and pressing for an extension of Ukraine’s gas transit agreement with Russia and supporting efforts of Ukraine to connect its electrical grid to Europe’s,” Blinken said at a press conference following a meeting of the United States-Ukraine Strategic Partnership Commission in Washington on Wednesday.
