U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will highlight the NATO alliance's ongoing support for Ukraine in its war with Russia in Europe this week, the top State Department official for Europe said on Monday. Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs James O'Brien also told reporters ahead of Blinken's travel to Brussels that Washington does not have a policy of pushing Ukraine into talks with Russia.

Blinken will represent the United States at a meeting of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe in Skopje, North Macedonia, this week, O'Brien said.
