Kyiv • UNN
The President of Ukraine warned of an arms shortage due to the war in Iran and offered US assistance.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a critical shortage of missiles for Patriot air defense systems. He stated this in an interview with ZDF, as reported by UNN.
Details
Zelenskyy noted that the war in Iran has negative consequences for Ukraine.
If the war continues longer, there will be less weapons for Ukraine
He also added that the war in Iran is a challenge for the whole world, not just for the US and Israel. Volodymyr Zelenskyy also offered US assistance in resolving the issue of the Strait of Hormuz.
Additionally
During recent negotiations between the US and Iran in Pakistan, the issue of control over the Strait of Hormuz reached a deadlock. Iran demands sole control over the Strait of Hormuz and the right to levy fees.
Subsequently, US President Donald Trump announced the immediate start of a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz after the failure of negotiations between the US and Iran regarding Tehran's nuclear program.
Recall
Earlier, UNN reported that Ukraine and Germany agreed on a new cooperation package worth 4 billion euros. These agreements include hundreds of missiles for Patriot, 36 IRIS-T systems, and 5,000 AI drones. In addition, Germany will invest 300 million euros in Ukraine's long-range weapons.
