President Volodymyr Zelensky said his meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in New York took place as Kyiv was under ballistic missile attack, making Ukraine’s need for Patriot interceptors and a winter support package the main topics of discussion.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy briefed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Kyiv's three waves of ballistic missile attacks, detailing the damage, destruction, and casualties sustained, according to UATV English. Zelenskyy emphasized that the constant terror against life in Ukraine cannot be countered alone, stating that only Patriot interceptors have proven effective against ballistic missiles, with promising results against jet-powered Shaheds.
However, he highlighted that Ukraine needs these interceptors almost daily. During the meeting, Zelenskyy and Rutte discussed the urgent need for winter support for Patriot interceptors, noting that this issue is critical not only for Ukraine but also for NATO member states due to Russia's ongoing threats.
