I have just arrived in Kyiv to meet with Ukrainian leaders. I am here today to deliver an important message: The United States will continue to stand with Ukraine in its fight for freedom against Russian aggression, now and in the future

The Pentagon chief's visit to Kyiv comes as the US passes a stopgap budget without new aid to Ukraine.
