KYIV, April 3 (Reuters) - Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited Ukraine on Monday to underscore his support for Kyiv and said he would work towards Washington supplying F-16 fighter jets and long-range missiles for the country's war against Russia.
Asked whether he would back providing Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets and long-range missiles Pompeo said: "Yes. And the training and the software and all the things needed to actually protect and defend your own land."
Addressing an audience of Ukrainian lawmakers, government officials, representatives of the military, civil society activists and students, he said providing military support for Ukraine was in Washington's best interests.

His candidacy was dead already, but this just puts a fork in it.
Is there a DC Establishment Politico who isn’t knee-deep in laundered money from this corrupt cesspool of a country?
How many of these prick politicians visit Kiev before they visit Harlem? Just one example but you get the point.
And/or...just supposing Trump is the nominee, Pompeo will be his VP..
And don't start with the CIA stint. He was appointed by Trump who later appointed him as SOS. Probably the best SOS since Kissinger. Pompeo has a stunning biography!!
Pompeo thinks that we’re still back in the cold war with the USSR, when the left didn’t control the USA and it’s allies.
Or visit the Mexican border. Clearly at this point Ukraine’s so-called “sovereignty” is more important than the USA’s in the viewpoint of these globalist American criminals.
Too bad he is too fat to fly the F-16s and deliver them himself. BTW the side that has the better drones and the better nerds to run them will win.
He can go be Zelensky’s VP while Vindman takes over as Ukraine’s Minoster of Defense.
So much for Pompeo as a white hat.
FU Mikey.
Pompeo has been quite consistent here on this issue. Unlike Trump who sanctioned Nordstream2 as POTUS but is now parroting the Kremlin’s gaslighting talking points. You know what you’ll get with Pompeo. Trump not so much.
No official job. Does it violate the Logan Act? No. If he went to Russia it would. The issue is negotiating with a nation that ‘has a dispute’ with the US. Ukraine no-Russia plenty. Would Biden go after him? Doubt he could.
Trump could and should while the show trial is going on.
Yep. When Asa announced Pompeo lost half of this two supporters.
How is Trump “parroting” the “Kremlin’s gaslighting talking points?” This should be good.
Why am I not surprised that Pompeo is a BIDEN PUPPET?
“Yes. And the training and the software and all the things needed...”
*************
In other words, lots of ways for his Deep State friends to profit off of war at the taxpayers’ expense.
Pompeo is connected to Victor Pinchuk and you’re criticizing Trump. Interesting…
You haven’t seen him recently have you? He lost lots of weight for his inevitable run for the White House
