Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Kyiv on Wednesday in a gesture of support as Ukraine's counteroffensive against Russian forces grinds into its fourth month with only small gains.
Blinken took the typical route to the Ukraine, arriving in Poland on Tuesday evening before taking an overnight train to Kyiv. He has taken the trip to the war-torn country four times since the invasion began and the sixth since taking office.
As Blinken made the journey under the cover of darkness, Russian aircrafts were pummeling the Ukrainian capital with cruise missiles, hours after Putin's forces targeted the port city of Odesa in a drone attack.
During his two-day visit, staying overnight in Ukraine for the first time since before Russia's February 2022 invasion, Blinken will likely announce a new package of U.S. assistance worth more than $1 billion, a senior State Department official said in a briefing for reporters on the trip.
Blinken, on the first trip to Kyiv by a top U.S. official since the Ukrainian counteroffensive began, is expected to meet President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba among other senior officials as well as civil society figures, the official said.

Eff Hawaii!!!
IIRC, he last visited President Grease Spot right before the Nord Stream pipeline blew up.
Why do they need to go in person? I’d like to have a look at what’s in his diplomatic pouch.
He got another briefcase.
Hey, Zelenskiy and his cronies just need more money to pay for all the hidey holes they are buying across the world in case they need to flee if Russia takes over.
Challenging counter offensive?
Nonsense! Ukraine has been kicking “Ruzzia’s” butt every day of the year!
Not ‘if’, but ‘when’............................

excerpt from the post:
This is undeniable and irrefutable evidence that @BoneFaceTheMC
Kent “BoneFace” McLellan, a Nazi domestic terrorist and violent criminal is an FBI/CIA asset who has been flown back and forth to Ukraine with the help of the US Government and the @JoeBiden
administration to fight the Russians as a U.S. backed intelligence asset.
This is proof the CIA/FBI and Florida law enforcement are protecting NAZIS and Ukrainian war criminals, given the fact that McLellan was also recently given a Ukrainian passport.
10% kickback to “The Big Guy”.
It looks like Joe just backs a truck up to Fort Knox whenever he feels like it!
Hillary is paralyzed with envy.
Stopping by to get Biden’s 10%? That is how it is done, isn’t it?
He should wave the white flag and get this over with.
Who? Blinken or Zelenskyy?.................😜
SO that means about half might make it there even the military audits said they can’t find out where it ends up at.
Raping the tax payer until they bleed and repeat.
Weapons we have sent to Ukraine are already showing up on the black market..................
I would bet that Ukraine is selling those weapons to the Chinese to reverse engineer.
or whoever is the highest bidder................
