Church Brewing: where the customers are the congregation and the choir | SaltWireKYIV - EU foreign ministers held their first ever meeting outside the bloc in Ukraine on Monday, a show of support for the country after a pro-Russian candidate won an election in Slovakia and the U.S. Congress omitted funding for Kyiv from a spending bill.
Washington insists its firm military and political support for Ukraine has not wavered, despite Congress having excluded Ukraine funds from an emergency spending deal reached at the weekend to avert a government shutdown. He said the question was whether what happened in the U.S. Congress at the weekend was"an incident or a system".
"We are not changing that we are prepared to help Ukraine in a humanitarian way," Fico said at a news conference after his victory."We are prepared to help with the reconstruction of the state but you know our opinion on arming Ukraine."
