Air defense for Ukraine
Air defense remains a priority for assistance from our partners and allies. In particular, it repeatedly became one of the main topics for negotiations during the Ramstein meeting.
As President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said, the Russian Federation may likely increase energy terror against our country this winter. Meanwhile, Ukraine is asking some allies for air defense systems only for the winter against the background of possible attacks.
