U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin made an unannounced visit to Kyiv, Ukraine on Monday to reaffirm the United States' commitment to providing financial and military support to Ukraine in the face of Russia's invasion. Over 50 countries have joined the U.S. in providing support to Ukraine, which has been instrumental in helping the country to withstand the Russian invasion and continue to fight for its sovereignty. Austin's visit is a clear sign that the U.S. is committed to standing by Ukraine in its fight against Russia, even as the world's attention is focused on other global conflicts.
