Poroshenko meets Trump advisor Waltz: U.S. ready to counter Russian aggression

Former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko held a meeting with Congressman and Trump national security advisor Michael Waltz at the International Democrat Union Forum on Thusday.

“I received assurances that the new U.S. administration is ready to demonstrate leadership in countering Russian aggression and establishing a just peace in Ukraine,” Poroshenko said in his post on social media.

The Ukrainian politician praised the relationship Kyiv had with Trump’s administration during his first term in the office when Ukraine was handed over the first batches of lethal weapons.

“I am confident that Putin can be stopped with the principle of ‘peace through strength.’ We agreed to maintain dialogue,” Poroshenko added.

The Republican Congressman and Colonel in the National Guard, Waltz chairs a subcommittee within the Armed Services Committee. Following Trump’s election victory, Waltz was nominated as National Security Advisor, which means he will have a critical role in shaping U.S. defense and foreign policy.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
