Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that he is working on a package to provide Ukraine with air defense systems and ammunition for six months.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is actively working on a package to equip Ukraine with air defense systems and ammunition for a six-month period. If the Patriot issue cannot be resolved, Ukraine may find itself in a precarious situation, according to Zelenskyy. This issue can potentially be addressed by European nations, countries outside Europe, and the United States.
Providing Ukraine with missiles for Patriot systems and operational F-16 aircraft, including 20-mm ammunition, is the top priority for Zelenskyy. He is currently striving to secure a six-month supply for Ukraine. Zelenskyy reported that Ukraine consumes between 5,000 and 6,000 rounds of 20-mm ammunition daily. To achieve this goal, a substantial stockpile is crucial.
The president emphasized that securing funding at the end of the year is challenging, as some partners have already concluded their fiscal year and are planning their expenditures for the upcoming year.
