Zelensky meets Macron to discuss air defenses, winter support
"We are also ready to secure additional SAMP/T air defense systems and missiles for them using the financial resources available through the EU loan," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
As Russian strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure threaten to disrupt heating and electricity supplies for millions, the G7 energy group is stepping up support ahead of winter. In response to a conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in New York, French President Emmanuel Macron announced that France would supply radar stations and interceptors to bolster Ukraine's air defense.
The French leader emphasized that this aid is crucial to helping Ukraine weather the coming winter, and he also discussed prospects for an energy truce and a moratorium in the Black Sea during the talks.
