Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, U.S. security assistance, and Nord Stream 2 threats to Europe were the main topics of a virtual meeting between Co-Chair of the Senate Ukraine Caucus Dick Durbin and former Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk.

“On the call, Durbin and Yatsenyuk discussed ongoing acts of Russian aggression towards Ukraine, U.S.-Ukraine security cooperation and assistance, and concerns with the Nord Stream 2 pipeline,” reads the statement released on the official website of U.S. Senator following the meeting.

U.S. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL), Co-Chair of the Senate Ukraine Caucus also expressed his continued support for strong bipartisan Congressional backing for Ukraine.
