The United States is prepared to provide military assistance to Ukraine in the humanitarian field, the State Department said. According to the latest UN figures, the humanitarian crisis in eastern Ukraine has been ongoing for months and has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and injuries. The humanitarian situation in the region is dire and requires a coordinated response from all involved, the State Department said. The statement said that the United States is prepared to provide military assistance to Ukraine.
Ukrainian authorities have been provided with significant non-lethal aid, including medical, engineering, and communications expertise. However, the United States is prepared to offer additional non-lethal assistance, such as blankets, sleeping bags, and hygiene kits, if requested by the Ukrainian Government. The United States has also provided capital in humanitarian assistance to the people of Ukraine. The State Department said it continues to offer humanitarian assistance to civilians in need as it seeks to support a negotiated political solution. “We want to see a political solution to this crisis, and we want to see it happen soon,” the statement said. “We are prepared to work with the Government of Ukraine and others to provide humanitarian assistance to those in need.” The United States has called for an immediate ceasefire in east Ukraine in the past and is prepared to take further actions to support a diplomatic solution.
Humanitarian assistance
The Ukrainian Government has repeatedly appealed for humanitarian assistance in the conflict-torn east. On the other hand, Russia has blocked the delivery of much-needed aid to Ukraine, claiming that it would exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in the region. The United States has called for the delivery of humanitarian assistance, including food and medical supplies, to eastern Ukraine. The United States also has called for the immediate cessation of military flights over eastern Ukraine, which has impeded the delivery of humanitarian assistance.
Conclusion
Humanitarian aid in Ukraine is urgently needed, approved by the UN, and addressed to the Ukrainian Government. The majority of social and media outlets have noted that the delivery of humanitarian aid would solve the crisis and propose an essential chance for political dialogue.
