Beginning under the Poroshenko regime, military assistance from the [[United States]], which amounted to more than 2.7 billion dollars in the period from 2014 to 2021, depended on military reforms within Ukraine. One of these reforms focused on Ukraine’s ability to integrate its logistical support with other [[NATO]] units during joint operations. In 2016, Poroshenko sought and obtained experienced military advisers from United States, [[Canada]], [[Great Britain]], [[Lithuania]] and [[Germany]], whose purpose was to modernize Ukrainian units and reach NATO standards by 2020, thus achieving a high degree of compatibility with units from other alliance countries.
