“We received strong support from the U.S., support of sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of our state, as well as support in the continuation of reforms in Ukraine,” Petro Poroshenko said at the meeting with media representatives in Washington. In particular, the parties discussed the Ukraine-USA cooperation in the military-technical sphere. “The President gave clear instruction to expand our cooperation,” Petro Poroshenko said. “The agenda was really broad. I am fully satisfied with the results of the negotiations and grateful to President Trump, Vice President Pence and the Secretaries I met for a very strong support of our state,” the President concluded.
