Quote: "We are looking for opportunities to give Kharkiv greater air defence, and this is a task for both the military and all diplomats of Ukraine – for everyone who is responsible for international communication, who has to be in dialogue with partners on a daily basis.

It is quite obvious that the air defence capabilities available to us in Ukraine are not enough, and this is obvious to all our partners as well. And the world must finally feel the pain that Russian terrorists are inflicting on Kharkiv, on Kupiansk, on cities in Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy regions, and many other Ukrainian communities...

There are air defence systems in the world that can help. The only thing needed is the political will to transfer these systems to Ukraine."

Details: The President also stated that "the Patriots should now be deployed in Ukraine, so that later on they will not have to be used at least along the entire eastern flank of NATO".
