"As for their ability to win. The first step to victory is the belief that you can win. And because they believe that we can win. We believe that we - they - can win if they have the right equipment, the right support and we're going to do our best and continue to do our best," Austin told reporters.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the U.S. will continue to support Ukraine in the future. In his opinion, an independent Ukraine will last much longer than Russian President Vladimir Putin will "be on stage."
