The United States will provide Ukraine with $ 7 million to restore the East of the country

The United States will send almost seven million dollars in the restoration to some parts of Eastern Ukraine, Reuters reports with reference to the statement of US Vice President Joe Biden. Bayden announced assistance in a telephone conversation with the Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk.

According to the agency, the amount includes deductions to the International Red Cross Committee and the Office of the UN Supreme Commissioner for Refugees for Medical Affairs, Access to Drinking Water and Small Restorative Work.

On the eve of ten congressmen, a bill was introduced to the House of Representatives, offering Ukraine to recognize Ukraine as the main military ally of the United States outside the NATO bloc. The document also calls on President Barack Obama to provide Kyiv assistance in the field of safety and intelligence. “We will help the people of Ukraine defend ourselves from Russian steps to destabilize Ukraine,” said Congressman Sander Levin.

Earlier, on July 21, the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko in an interview with CNN said that with the inefficiency of sanctions against Russia, Kyiv has the basis for contacting the US Congress on the provision of special status - the main ally outside the NATO bloc, which is Israel, Australia and the Philippines. According to him, this is necessary "to solve security problems."

“This is a threat to the whole world, this is not a conflict in Ukraine,” Poroshenko said. “The world must find the correct answer to the actions of terrorists.”

The day before, the US State Department has unveiled intelligence data, which confirm the previously charged charges of shelling the territory of Ukraine by Russia, as well as that Russia supplies heavy weapons to militants in the Donetsk and Luhansk region.
