"We are ready to take any steps necessary to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense," Zelenskyy stated
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine is ready to join efforts with its partners to secure funding for air defense systems.
This was announced during a briefing with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, according to Censor.NET.
"Today we discussed the security of Ukraine and of all Europe, the entire Euro-Atlantic area. We also discussed our relations with all our partners in Europe and the United States...
Now, with Mark in his new role (as NATO Secretary General -ed.note), we can achieve a great deal. Everyone clearly sees how urgent Ukraine’s need for air defense systems and missiles is. We spoke about this at length today. Everyone understands how important it is to maintain pressure on Russia for this war — to push it toward genuine readiness for diplomacy," Zelenskyy emphasized.
According to Zelenskyy, everyone in Europe should produce much more weapons together, create more joint defence production facilities.
‘We expect that our agreements on air defence with partners in Europe and America will be implemented. We talked about it today. We are ready to join forces to find the money and buy these systems. We are ready to take any steps to strengthen air defence for Ukraine,’ the Head of State added.
