"Ukraine now has enough capabilities to liberate occupied territories," - Stoltenberg
The North Atlantic Alliance has provided Ukraine with enough military assistance to liberate the territories seized by Russia, but is ready to do more to help Kyiv.
This was stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Censor.NET reports citing Ukrinform.
"NATO is providing unprecedented assistance. I am confident that Ukraine now has the capacity to liberate the occupied territories. But we need to do more," he said.
The Secretary General stressed that the Allies are working on a multi-year package of support for Kyiv with significant funding.
"This will ensure Ukraine's long-term deterrence and defence, and help rebuild its security and defence sector as it transitions from Soviet-era doctrines, equipment and training to full NATO compatibility," Stoltenberg added.
According to him, the meeting in Oslo also discussed raising the level of the NATO-Ukraine Commission to the level of the NATO-Ukraine Council.
"This will be a significant step that will help us create a joint consultative forum with Ukraine. Ukraine will have an equal seat at the negotiating table. It will also help us discuss security issues," the NATO Secretary General concluded.
