U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry has said the United States will continue to support Ukraine.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media that "President Zelensky’s speech was impressive and very powerful in what kind of vision for Ukraine’s future it is presented. The bottom line is that the elections were for the people of Ukraine, not for him," Perry said after Vladimir Zelensky was inaugurated.

He stressed that the United States would continue to support Ukraine. "The United States, together with the people of Ukraine, is looking forward to working with the new president and, I hope, with the new parliament," Interfax cited the official as saying.
