Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Dmytro Razumkov at a meeting with U.S. Chargé d'Affaires a.i. in Ukraine William Taylor noted the effective cooperation between Ukraine and the United States, the Ukrainian parliament’s press service reported.
“We greatly appreciate comprehensive assistance provided by the United States, as well as powerful contribution to the development of democracy and parliamentarism due to the USAID RADA Programme,” said Razumkov.
