Yovanovitch told the journalists on Nov. 9 that no matter who the next U.S. president will be, both during the transition period and under the new administration, the United States will remain a strong partner of Ukraine.
She said that both teams in the U.S. presidential election demonstrated support for Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity, democracy and cooperation.
The U.S. policy towards Ukraine has been unchanged for 25 years, because there is a consensus concerning the support of Ukraine, the ambassador said.
When asked about the future of the U.S. sanctions against Russia if Republican candidate Donald Trump wins, Yovanovitch expressed her confidence that the sanctions will be preserved and will be extended in December.
