We have 14 understaffed brigades - Zelensky
Kyiv • UNN
According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 14 brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have not been provided with the promised weapons due to slow deliveries from partners, which prevents counteroffensive actions.
Deliveries of the promised weapons by partners are very slow, which is why 14 brigades of the Armed Forces are still not staffed. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with Bloomberg on Wednesday, UNN reports.
This is not a stalemate, but a problematic situation. A stalemate is a dead end, but a problematic situation can be solved if you have the will and the tools. We have the desire, but the tools have not come. We have unarmed brigades and a reserve, 14 brigades that are not manned. They don't have the weapons that we have already voted for, that we talked about, the packages should be coming, but they are coming slowly
He emphasizes that we cannot talk about counteroffensive actions now, we need what we have.
We want counteroffensive actions when we are ready for them. And we will be ready when the weapons arrive, and there are none today
The President says that no one knows the schedule for the delivery of weapons.

Also in an interview with Bloomberg, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine has no absolute proof that weapons from China are getting into Russia.
