"A meaningful, thorough meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump took place. We received strong support from the U.S., support for the sovereignty, territorial integrity, and independence of our state," Poroshenko told journalists after a meeting with Trump in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.

The Ukrainian president also noted that he received the U.S. support of reforms in Ukraine.

He also said that he sees the U.S. as a reliable partner.
