Ukraine needs American Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems and more artillery to stabilize the situation at the front and repel another major Russian offensive, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

First of all, Ukraine needs American Patriot air defense systems and more artillery. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with CBS News, UNN reports.

According to Zelenskyy, Ukraine most needs American Patriot missile defense systems and more artillery. He added that the nature of the funding allocated by the US government to help Ukraine should be considered in the long run.

"Let's be honest, the money that is allocated by the Congress, by the administration, in most cases 80% of that money - well, at least more than 75% - stays in the United States. These munitions come to us, but the production takes place there, and the money stays in the United States, and the taxes stay in the United States," the President said.
