US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said that the counterattack launched by Ukraine against Russian forces is making steady progress.
He added at the opening of a meeting of the Contact Group on Defense in Ukraine, held at the Ramstein base in Germany, that Kiev will soon receive American Abrams tanks.
Austin added:
Russia targets Ukrainian ports and threatens global food security.
We must seek to strengthen Ukraine's air defenses.
The United States will provide a team to train the Ukrainians on F-16 aircraft.
We must continue to support Ukraine to maintain its integrity and territorial integrity.
American Abrams tanks will be delivered "soon" to Ukraine.
