22 May 14:51
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the United States will conduct a full analysis of all aid provided to Ukraine in recent years. In case of violations, appropriate measures will be taken. This is reported by the website of the US State Department, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports.
“Obviously, all of our assistance will be analyzed,” Rubio said during a speech in Congress.
He reminded that spending is controlled by inspectors general, including a special inspector general responsible for overseeing aid to Ukraine. According to Rubio, in case of detection of facts of abuse or misappropriation of funds, the United States will definitely respond.
He also emphasized that the end of the war between Russia and Ukraine remains a strategic goal of the United States.
“We have provided significant support to Ukraine, but this war must end. There is no military solution, only negotiations. The sooner this happens, the less casualties, destruction and costs will be incurred,” Rubio said.
According to him, the top priority of the US administration is “to end the war once and for all.”
As of 2025, US assistance to Ukraine is one of the largest and most influential among all partner countries. It includes military, financial, humanitarian, and technical support.
