U.S. Business Leaders Call for Defense Support to Protect Ukrainian Interests

The American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine has called on U.S. President Donald Trump to protect American business interests in the country from Russian attacks by urgently providing defense equipment. Chairman Andriy Hunder stated that without immediate U.S. military support, American corporate assets in Ukraine are at risk of destruction by Russian forces.

The chamber’s call comes amid escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine, with reports of increased military activity near the border. Hunder argued that U.S. military aid is essential not only for national defense but also to ensure the safety of foreign investments in Ukraine. He emphasized that protecting American businesses is vital to maintaining economic stability and long-term U.S.-Ukraine relations.
