The United States will shortly allocate $335 million to Ukraine to fund the security and defense sector, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said.

"The first position is $335 million, which Ukraine will finally receive without any conditions as the funding for the defense and security sector. We have been waiting for these resources for a very long time, we were involved in the distribution of these resources for the first time, setting those priorities, for which we primarily need these resources," he said in an interview with the Ukrainian television stations, following the visit to the U.S., aired on Sunday evening.
