Well, you didn’t know that America has signed with Ukraine (in 2008) a spectacular and far-reaching friendship-and-partnership deal which makes Ukraine one of our absolute closest allies. The treaty was signed AGAIN in 2021.
Alas, this poor thing appears to be a treaty like the Budapest Memorandum is a "treaty".

Article 2, Sec. 2, Cl. 2: "He shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur...."
For the November 21, 2021 "treaty" see the 2021 list of treaties and agreements.
You don’t seem to get the essence what I meant. I answered someone who said the “Ukraine is not an ally”!
Who cares about these 5 words (treaty, agreement, accord, charter, memorandum, etc.) because they all point to the same thing: PARTNERSHIP and ALLIED activity!
Do you really think the points here below are indicating that America is NOT allied to Ukraine?? Really?
