Ukraine seeks to receive 27 Patriot systems from American manufacturers to significantly strengthen its air defense against the russian federation. This was stated in an interview with The Guardian by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Meanwhile, according to the President, European states can provide Ukraine with their Patriots for temporary use.
The President announced active cooperation with international partners to protect against russian air attacks. At the same time, he stated that the allies are currently excluding the possibility of satisfying Kyiv's long-standing request - sending fighter jets to patrol the skies over the center and west of the country.
Also, when asked whether the EU and the UK are doing enough on the eve of winter, Zelenskyy replied that enough will not be enough until the war is over.
"It is never enough. Enough when the war is over. And enough when putin understands that he must stop," he said.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, Ukraine received air defense systems promised by Germany and Chancellor Friedrich Merz personally. Zelenskyy also met with the manufacturer of Patriot and thanked for the air defense systems.
