  US officials vow more aid to Ukraine amid Russia’s warnings

The U.S. pledged to send more aid to Ukraine after a meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the highest-level visit to the country, AzVision.az reports citing Daily Sabah.

In meetings with Zelenskyy in Kyiv, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the United States had approved a $165 million sale of ammunition for Ukraine’s war effort, along with more than $300 million in foreign military financing.

Russia has warned later the U.S. against sending more arms to Ukraine, Moscow's ambassador to Washington told Russian state television.

"We stressed the unacceptability of this situation when the United States of America pours weapons into Ukraine, and we demanded an end to this practice," Anatoly Antonov said in an interview with the Rossiya 24 TV channel.

Antonov said an official diplomatic note had been sent to Washington expressing Russia's concerns.
