The United States is committed to Ukraine’s sovereignty and principles of international relations that undergird peace and prosperity throughout Europe, the US Embassy to Georgia says.
The United States ‘strongly opposes’ Russia’s continued troop buildup on Ukraine’s borders and the untrue broadcasts on Russian state-controlled media directed at Ukraine and NATO.
US State Secretary Antony Blinken said Russia continues to promote a “false narrative” that Ukraine is seeking to provoke a conflict.
“The real question is whether Russia is serious about diplomacy, serious about de-escalation,” he said.
White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said in December 2021 the administration is ready to discuss issues that Moscow raises, but he emphasized that the Biden administration is committed to the “principle of nothing about you without you” in any policy that affects European allies and partners.
Conflict in Ukraine began in 2014 following Russia’s illegal seizure of the Crimean Peninsula and its instigation of a proxy war for an uprising in eastern Ukraine.
The United States supports the implementation of the Minsk agreements as a method to end the conflict. The agreements, which the United Nations endorsed, call for disarmament and withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.
