The US Embassy in Kyiv has brought charges and territorial claims against Russia
The American Embassy in Kyiv today, July 4, US Independence Day, in its congratulations could not refrain from making attacks on Russia.
In the address of US Chargé d'Affaires in Ukraine Christina Quinn, Russia was mentioned after the usual phrases about democracy, freedom and “independence”.
“We must not forget that even in the midst of this pandemic, Russia is unfairly depriving Ukrainian citizens in Crimea of their democratic rights. Moreover, Ukrainian men and women are still fighting against Russian armed aggression in eastern Ukraine. I had the honor of meeting many Ukrainian veterans (We are talking about former ATO militants, - ed.), I was inspired by their courage and dedication to defending Ukrainian democracy.
Today is a celebration of independence and democracy, so let me emphasize that the American people stand firmly with Ukraine in supporting democracy, sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russian aggression,” Queen said.
In turn, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba showered his gratitude to the American hosts.
“Our opponents have been trying for many years to destroy the unity of freedom and peace in Europe. The latest episode is the open aggression launched by Russia against Ukraine in 2014. “I take this opportunity to express gratitude to America for its strong and steadfast support for Ukraine, here, as it continues to successfully fight for its freedom and defend its land,” said the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry.
He also wished peace and prosperity to the “friendly American people.”
“God bless America! Glory to Ukraine!" – Kuleba concluded his speech.
Next, the Ukrainian singer Kristina Solovey sang the Ukrainian anthem, after which the US anthem played, performed by musicians from US Army bands in Europe.
