After many bomb attacks in the last week alone, Ukraine is hoping for more international help. After his return from the USA, President Zelenskyj explains what he now expects.
After his return from the USA, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky promised further aid to the soldiers and defense companies. At the NATO summit in Washington, concrete agreements were reached to strengthen Ukraine’s defense capabilities; it was about weapons for the soldiers and support for Ukraine’s defense companies, he said. There would also be more Patriots and dozens of other air defense systems. Zelensky did not give any details.
Last week alone, Russia fired more than 700 glide bombs, 170 combat drones of various types and almost 80 missiles at Ukraine, the Ukrainian head of state said on the X portal. Ukraine is grateful to everyone who is helping to protect the country from Russian terror by supplying defense systems. Once again, Zelensky asked for more anti-aircraft systems in a video that showed destruction of infrastructure and corpses on the streets. “Together we will overcome evil.”
In his video message, Zelensky also announced further bilateral security agreements with the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Ireland, where he had made a stopover on his return journey. Most recently, he signed such agreements with Poland, Luxembourg and Romania, which are intended to bridge the time until the country joins NATO.
Selenskyj: USA wants to help at all levels
After numerous meetings with politicians in the US, including President Joe Biden and several governors, Zelenskyj says he now wants to meet with representatives of the regions in Ukraine to strengthen cooperation at the regional level. “Healthcare, shelters, the defense industry, etc. The US is ready to help on all of these levels.”
In his video, he also repeated his previously expressed horror at the attempted assassination of US presidential candidate Donald Trump. “A terrible crime that can only be condemned. And that shows how great the global challenges for democracy are today.” He is convinced that the USA will overcome this challenge. The country is the biggest supporter of Ukraine in its defensive struggle against the Russian war of aggression, which has been going on for more than two years.
