“This is extremely necessary before winter in conditions of constant strikes from Russia. We need real progress in long -rangeness. There is a solution that allows American contractors to work in Ukraine for repair and maintenance of equipment, which will significantly accelerate the process,” Zelensky said during evening video,
The Head of State also expressed gratitude to Canada for the cooperation on the supply of additional NASAMS and Great Britain air defense systems – for new sanctions “against Russian entities working for war.” “All legal and individuals of Russia who support the activities of the Russian military -industrial complex should be isolated from the world to limit Russia’s capabilities to avoid real diplomacy and continue the war,” he said.
