President Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that the negotiations with Nancy Pelosi were substantive and multifaceted.
The United States will provide Ukraine with broad economic, military and humanitarian support. Washington will support Kyiv until Russia is defeated.
This was stated by the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress Nancy Pelosi, writes The New York Times .
“America will stand by Ukraine until the victory is won,” Pelosi said on Sunday after a visit to our country.
Pelosi said she was touched by her meeting with the wartime president of Ukraine, calling Zelensky “brilliant.” She described their three-hour meeting as “a wonderful masterclass in leadership.”
She said that she began the meeting with Zelensky by quoting the American revolutionary Thomas Paine. “Time has found us,” he wrote in 1776. “We believe that the time has come for Ukraine,” Pelosi said. This struggle, she added, will help preserve democracy around the world.
“Putin’s war is evil”: what other members of Congress said
Representatives of the US Congress, who were part of the American delegation during their visit to Kyiv, also expressed their support for Ukraine.
Thus, the representative of New York, the head of the foreign affairs committee, Gregory Meeks, said that the United States would work with allies to improve and expand sanctions in order to increase pressure on Moscow.
“Nothing will decrease, everything will only increase,” Meeks said.
California spokesman Adam Schiff, head of the Intelligence Committee, said he was “delighted with what the Ukrainians have been able to achieve” by fending off Russian attempts to seize Kyiv and depriving Moscow’s better-equipped forces of an easy victory.
Massachusetts State Representative Jim McGovern said that Russia is waging war not only against the people of Ukraine, but also against the most vulnerable segments of the world’s population. Ukraine is considered the breadbasket of Europe, and the war “exacerbates hunger throughout the world.”
“I don’t think Putin cares if he’s starving Ukraine or the world. Putin’s war is evil,” McGovern said.

Some great, resonant words there Nancy! You have the power to make them all come true.
Such words would perhaps carry more weight coming from a Ronald Reagan, John McCain, Marco Rubio or Roger Wicker, but nevertheless are VERY welcome!
The problem with McCain is that he was widely regarded as mad. Rubio is not consistent and can’t be trusted in anything. Wicker seems to be consistent, but the jury is still out.
Personally, I’m glad McCain is in no position to do anymore damage.
As much as I regard Pelosi to be an ass I thank her for her words. That will resonant in Russia and perhaps more people will see the will of the US is unbroken. Given her the award is bullshit. As I previously mentioned the woman who in my mind deserves the award is Lizz Truss who has been vocal and helping right from the beginning. Ms Truss I respect without any hesitation
Zelensky was simply stroking Pelosi. The woman is a demented fool.
I’ve had my issues with Pelosi. We are not served well in the US with her and her politics.
However, I do appreciate her words about Ukraine and Zelensky. I hope that we can trust them … all the way to mafia land’s end.
