Yermak spoke of the meeting on Telegram, where he said he valued the military support from the United States and said the two sides discussed further security assistance.
Yermak said he noted “the Kremlin’s decision to recognize the referendums carried out in the temporarily occupied regions requires an immediate and appropriate reaction from the world community.” (Reporting by Rami Ayyub; Editing by Sandra Maler and Daniel Wallis)
