US Vice President Kamala Harris highlighted the unity between the US and its NATO and European allies and warned that Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine poses a threat to all democracies, APA reports citing CNN.
"Russia's invasion threatens not just Ukraine's democracy; it threatens democracy and security across Europe," Harris said at the Democratic National Committee's winter meeting on Saturday in Washington, DC.
"The ocean that separates us will not leave us untouched by this aggression," she said.
Harris, speaking about her recent trip to Poland and Romania, said she emphasized that the "greatest strength" of the alliance is its unity.
"The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance," Harris said to applause from the crowd.
Harris also told the attendees about meeting with a Moroccan student who had fled Ukraine and the plight of millions of refugees fleeing the Russian onslaught.
