Press Release

Date: May 24, 2023
Location: Washington, DC

"The United States has been and will continue to be steadfast in its support for security and humanitarian assistance for Ukraine as Putin's barbaric and unjustified assault on democracy continues. We must look beyond the conflict too, which is why it's vital that we engage in discussions about Ukraine's reconstruction now instead of months or years from now."

Reconstruction encompasses more than just physical infrastructure -- it's also about empowering the Ukrainian government to deliver for its people during and after the war. By working in partnership with Ukraine on reconstruction, we can fortify the capacity of its democratic institutions, strengthen its judiciary and anti-corruption efforts, implement critical governance and economic reforms, foster European cooperation and integration, and enhance its energy security and diversification."
