Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stressed that the current model of assistance is ineffective. According to him, providing only a few missiles once every few months does not allow for ensuring adequate protection of the state.
The head of state called on European states to allow the use of missiles in their arsenals to protect the Ukrainian population.
“Україна не може вижити, якщо отримуватиме лише кілька ракет раз на кілька місяців” (Ukraine cannot survive if it receives only a few missiles once every few months), Zelensky stated.
Separately, the President drew attention to the pressure tools used by Russia. He recalled that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin understood how to use oil and gas to influence international politics even during the war in Chechnya.
According to Zelensky, the Kremlin continues to use energy resources as levers of pressure on the world. This forces politicians to turn a blind eye to Russian aggression.
