The United States is ready to financially support Ukraine if necessary reforms are conducted in the country, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland said.

Nuland told a press conference in Kyiv on Friday that there had been broad debate at the meetings on support from the international community, including the United States, and the U.S. is ready to provide support to Ukraine if it moves quickly in the direction of the protection of human rights, dignity, conflict de-escalation, and political reform.

Otherwise the EU, the International Monetary Fund, and the U.S. will not provide financial assistance to Ukraine, Nuland said.

Nuland reiterated that such support from the U.S. and the IMF may be considerable and will help Ukraine with further reforms.
