The President instructed diplomats to explore the possibility of forming a coalition of neighboring NATO member states to shoot down russian missiles over Ukraine. Zelenskyy proposes to consider this issue at a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council.
The President instructed diplomats to work within the framework of the NATO-Ukraine Council to create a coalition of neighboring states that will help shoot down russian missiles over the territory of our country. According to UNN, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this during a conversation with journalists on the Day of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The President emphasized the need to work on the technical possibility of using combat aircraft from neighboring countries against missiles sent by the occupiers.
Yes, they are hitting Ukraine, but they are hitting our partner neighbors, especially the Alliance countries
He noted that such a decision would likely be difficult for partners.
They are always afraid of a possible escalation. We are fighting against this. We will continue to work on it
The President believes that convening a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council is a good option to consider this issue. He said that he had already instructed diplomats to work with NATO to develop a meeting.
We lack such a coalition today
The President added that he believes it is a great responsibility for one of the neighboring countries to take on such obligations and help Ukraine shoot down russian missiles.
