Ukraine is interested in receiving international military aid and purchasing weapons as early as possible and in the appropriate amounts to prevent Russia from prolonging the war.
According to the source, Ukraine’s Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov mentioned this during a meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council at the level of defense ministers, which included the NATO Secretary-General.
“There are numerous signs that Russia is planning a long-term military operation. The war is about to enter a new phase. We can already see how the Russian occupants are starting engineering and fortification works in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia in order to defend themselves if necessary “Reznikov explained.
In view of this, he emphasized the importance of preventing the new military and civilian casualties.
“Every day of the fight, our military suffers casualties, and the civilian population suffers greatly. Particularly in Russia’s temporarily occupied territories. What happened at Bucha was broadcast around the world. The same ‘Buchas’ are now taking place all over the world where Russian forces are stationed. Our people are kidnapped, tortured, and murdered “Reznikov explained.
He also stated that the war is ruining the Ukrainian economy and that the country’s reconstruction needs are mounting by the day.
“A worldwide food catastrophe, as well as a new migratory crisis, are both possible outcomes of the prolonged war. With this in mind, we aim to destroy the enemy as soon as possible and liberate our lands. Allowing Russia to prolong the confrontation is not an option. That is why we are eager to get international assistance and purchase weapons as soon as feasible and in sufficient quantities. Tanks, armored vehicles, and long-range fire weaponry systems are required (MLRS, heavy artillery, aircraft, and missiles). We strive to save our people’s lives “he remarked.
“We see the need to boost the effectiveness of international assistance through better coordination across all partners,” Reznikov says.
