US State Department believes Ukraine capable of achieving its 1991 demarked borders, including Crimea
The US Department of State has noted that Ukraine has the right and ability to restore its borders, including the return of the occupied Crimean peninsula
This was stated at a briefing by US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.
"We believe that Ukraine has the ability and has the right, and we support Ukraine defending its sovereignty and its territorial integrity. That includes the parts of Ukraine that Russia has illegally captured and occupied since its invasion in February of last year. It also includes Crimea, and we’ve made that clear," the State Department spokesman said in response to a question about whether US assistance is aimed at restoring Ukraine's 1991 borders.
