Speaking in Kyiv, Mr Blinken said Washington has the power to seize Russian assets in the US and will use them to help rebuild Ukraine.

He also said that Ukraine is getting “closer to Nato”.

Earlier, the top US diplomat told Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky that military aid is “now on its way”.

“What Putin destroyed, Russia should - must - pay to rebuild. It’s what international law demands. And it’s what the Ukrainian people deserve,” Mr Blinken said during his speech at Kyiv Polytechnic University.

“Our Congress has given us the power to seize Russian assets in the US, and we intend to use it,” he said.

      Surely this also applies to current USA administration turning Ukraine into prison that is almost impossible to escape and where men are treated worse then dogs?

        Ukrainian government do that.Cause they don’t know what are they doing in there. They are morrons and yeah what u said about prison for men.It’s true not only Russian doing that.Both sides getting wild and harsh.Men are kidnapped on the streets by the military registration and enlistment office.Recently applied new law which make just more corruption and war for poor.Police and special forces have protection from mobilization,so they gonna defense government from any protests against government.
