 Ukraine ready for war with China if US asks. Ukrainian MP Kiev is ready to assist the US in a war against any enemy be it Iran, North Korea or China. Alexei Goncharenko, a senior Ukrainian MP has said claiming that his country would prove to be a valuable military ally. In an interview with CNN, Alexei Goncharenko doubled down on calls for the US to send Ukraine more military aid amid gridlock in Congress. The United States of America told us that we will be with you as long as it takes. Now it's time to keep the promises. Goncharenko rebuke to US politicians for focusing too much on the looming 2024 presidential election saying Ukraine should not be a victim of this. He also claimed that supporting Ukraine serves Washington's interests regardless of who wins the race for the White House. In the event of a future war, the Americans will need people who will stand shoulder to shoulder with them, but not many nations would be willing to go all in to support the US, the lawmaker said. Ukrainians are ready. We are ready to stand with the United States shoulder to shoulder either in trenches near Tehran or in North Korea or near Beijing. No difference, he stated, because we appreciate your support. Despite his plea for more Western military aid, Goncharenko argued that Ukraine has the second strongest army in the free world after the US making it a very valuable ally. But today we need your support to defend our country. He added, blaming gaps and delays in arms shipments for the loss of the strategic Donbas city of Avdivka last week.
