Volodymyr Zelenskyy: For a successful counteroffensive, it is important for Ukraine to receive weapons and ammunition from partners in time
It is important for Ukraine to receive the necessary weapons and ammunition in time for a successful counteroffensive and further de-occupation of its territories, and it is in the interests of other states to help the Ukrainian army stop Russian aggression before it moves further into Europe. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a meeting with representatives of political circles, the public and the media in Bulgaria.
According to the Head of State, during the occupation of Ukrainian lands, the enemy has set up three lines of defense. The Russian army is massively mining the occupied territories to prevent the advance of Ukrainian troops, and a lot of special equipment is needed to overcome these obstacles.
“We have a heavily mined area, and our guys have to go forward. There are neutral states. There are states that think long and hard. There are bureaucratic processes. We are facing a global multifaceted challenge because we are going on foot, clearing mines, and then the military vehicles come. There is a difference between walking and driving,” he said.
