oleksiy Makeyev, โขUkraine‘s ambassador to the United States,โฃ cautioned against what he termed “US bashing” during ongoing negotiations regarding continued American aid to Ukraine, according to remarks made November 27, 2025. Makeyev’s warning comes as debates intensify within theโข U.S.โค Congressโ over a significant โฃaid package, with some lawmakers expressing skepticism about the level of financial support already provided and demanding greaterโฃ accountability.
The ambassador’s โstatementโข underscores the critical importanceโค of sustained U.S. assistance to Ukraine’s defence against Russian aggression. A delay or reduction in aid could substantially impact Ukraine’s ability to resist the ongoing โinvasion,potentially altering the geopolitical landscape in Eastern Europe and beyond. The debate in Washingtonโข reflects a broader discussion about โฃtheโ long-termโ strategy for supportingโค Ukraine and ensuring responsible use of taxpayer dollars.
Makeyev specificallyโค addressed concerns about rhetoric that he believes undermines the strong bilateral relationship between Ukraine and theโค United States. He โคemphasizedโ that Ukraine isโค fighting not only for its own โsovereignty but also for shared democraticโค values and the broader security interests of the transatlantic alliance. The ambassador’s comments were delivered amidst heightened diplomatic efforts to secure continued U.S. support, as Ukraine faces a challenging winter and ongoing Russian offensives.
