The embassy had been shut for three months, closing days before Russia started its military operation in Ukraine, State Department Spokesperson Ned Price said in a statement.
Price said they made it clear that even though they were relocating embassy personnel for their safety, it would not stop their engagement and support for the Ukrainian people, government and civil societies, allies and partners.
“We underscored our commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, pledged to continue our assistance, and started working toward the day we could return to Kyiv,” read the statement.
Price also stated that the Ukrainian people, with their security assistance, have defended their homeland from Russia’s attack.
“We stand proudly with, and continue to support, the government and people of Ukraine as they defend their country from the Kremlin,” Price said in a statement.
He further stated that additional measures and enhanced safety protocols were in place to increase the safety of those returning to Kyiv.
“Millions of Ukrainians are displaced from their homes and mourn the loss of their loved ones. With strength of purpose, we reaffirm our commitment to the people and government of Ukraine, and we look forward to carrying out our mission from the US Embassy in Kyiv,” according to the statement.
