The brigades are manned: Zelensky voices Ukraine's needs from partners
Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine wants its military brigades to be fully manned and equipped with modern weapons to defend itself and gain an advantage over Russian forces, which have no superiority on the ground or in the air.
What Ukraine wants from its international partners is to ensure that its military brigades are manned. We want them to have weapons to defend themselves and Ukraine and not to go backwards, but rather to have an advantage in modern technology. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a joint press conference with President of Finland Alexander Stubb, an UNN correspondent reports.
"Today, Ukraine is interested in many things, but at least we would like the brigades that are in Ukraine, our military brigades, to be manned. And this is exactly what we want from Finland and our other partners," Zelenskyy said.
He said that Ukraine lacks superiority, both on the ground and in the sky.
"We just need well-equipped brigades, guys and girls who have weapons to protect themselves, to defend Ukraine and not to go backwards, but rather to have an advantage in modern equipment. We lack superiority both on the ground and in the sky. I would focus on what we don't have now," Zelensky said.
Addendum
At the end of March, Zelenskyy statedthat Ukraine had managed to contain the Russian offensive and stabilize the situation, but that we were not able to repel another offensive.
