The Ukrainian authorities are working with international partners to supply the Armed Forces with weapons and to strengthen air defense.
This was stated by Volodymyr Zelensky in a video address.
“Everything related to weapons, to air defense, to front-line positions. There are already new packages from our partners, and our understanding of long-range capabilities is gaining more supporters. And that means there will be more of our precise long-range sanctions – direct sanctions against the Russian war machine. This works across thousands of kilometers”

“We are working with countries to secure more Patriots and missiles for them”
