Slotkin arrived in Kyiv to participate in joint consultations on defense issues with Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Yuri Gusev.
Alice Slotkin expressed her conviction that the current situation in the world, and in Ukraine in particular, requires regular holding of such bilateral negotiations.

In addition, the American official assured that the assistance provided to Ukraine in the form of technical support for Hummers, night vision devices, body armor, etc. will not stop, and in the near future the Armed Forces of Ukraine will receive special counter-artillery fire stations.
