Zelensky publicly appealed to Ukraine's allies
As the head of state emphasized, the new strike from the aggressor country of the Russian Federation proves that it is necessary to immediately increase the capabilities of Ukrainian air defense.
The world has enough systems to do that. We forwarded all requests regarding air defense to partners: both regarding "patriots" and other systems that can be effective in protecting life, Volodymyr Zelenskyy added.
According to him, the issue lies exclusively in political decisions.
And this is the decision of the American administration, the decision of the leaders in Europe, the decision of other partners in the world. Solutions that can save thousands of lives and make Russian terror meaningless.
