“The allegations of the existence of a crisis of confidence between the leadership of the United States and Ukraine do not correspond to reality ... There is a crisis of public assessments among some Ukrainian leaders,” he replies to a corresponding request from “Evropeyskaya Pravda”.

As the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry recalled, the American embassy in Kiev has already announced the preparation of a telephone conversation between US President Joe Biden and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky without preconditions.

“There are no grounds to question the strategic nature of the partnership between Ukraine and the United States,” Nikolenko stressed.

Earlier, Zelensky said he did not feel any tension in relations with the United States, despite the lack of personal contact with Biden.

At the end of the year, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said what he expects from relations with the United States under the new administration of "rock and roll".
