Among other things, organizations that support veterans and local media in Ukraine are affected by the American aid pause.

There are many projects. We will determine which of them are essential and need solutions now. We can provide parts of this financing through our general finances, says the president in his evening speech.

We will definitely support the prioritized issues, those that concern Ukrainian children, our veterans, and programs that protect our infrastructure.

After US President Donald Trump took office, he decided to stop all American aid for 90 days, to see if the projects are in line with the president's political goals.

Zelenskyj has previously stated that the US has not stopped its military support to Ukraine.

Ukraine is extremely dependent on foreign support for humanitarian work since Russia launched a full-scale offensive against the country in February 2022. The US provides a large part of the support.
