Ukraine will demand a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council to discuss air defense, air defense systems and missiles, as announced by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in response to recent threats and conflicts.

Ukraine will request a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council to discuss the protection of the skies, the supply of air defense, relevant systems and missiles. This was announced by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a video address, UNN reports.

"We have heard a lot over the past two days. About different conflicts - here in Europe and in the Middle East - different levels of threats, different airspace, although the chess pieces and ballistics are the same. Different threats of escalation. But are human lives different, do people have different dignity? No. We value every life equally. We must value it. We must protect them from terror on the same level. Ukraine will request a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council to discuss the protection of the sky, the supply of air defense, relevant systems and missiles," Zelenskyy said.
