'Putin won't stop if he is successful in Ukraine', says US Defence Secy Austin

Convening the 20th meeting of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group, Austin said that Ukraine will not back down in the face of the Russian invasion of the country, and neither will the United States, the statement from the US Department of Defence (DOD) stated.

The meeting took place at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, praising the “countries of conscience” that are working together to aid Ukraine in its fight. Austin and Air Force General CQ Brown, Jr, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, met with representatives of more than 50 countries and organizations to channel aid, training and capabilities to Ukraine.

“For more than two years, Ukraine’s forces have fought Putin’s aggression with defiance and skill,” the DOD quoted Austin as saying.
