It is worth noting that the Ukrainian leader has not yet explained exactly what steps are being taken and how he and his team plan to implement them.

According to Volodymyr Zelenskyi, all tasks for the Air Force and the Ministry of Defense were also determined during the meeting.

In addition, the president spoke about the "military content" of the victory plan. He continues to actively work with the military command, which resulted in the preparation of "a good, strong content of the military package."

Zelensky spoke about problems with equipping Ukrainian brigades

The President of Ukraine drew attention to the fact that the delivery of aid from allies is too slow.

We need to prepare 14 brigades. We still don't have it, and we haven't equipped even 4 of this package of brigades, — Zelenskyi said.

It is also important to understand that during the eight-month pause preceding the positive decision of the US Congress on aid to Ukraine, all reserves were used.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that at that moment he and his team simply had no other way out.

We have transferred what we have in the reserves, what we have in the warehouses or in the reserve brigades that we need now. We took away all the weapons they had.
