To win the war against Russia, Ukraine needs 400 HIMARS launcher units, states the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Lithuania, Gabrielius Landsbergis.
"To win the war against Russia, Ukraine needs not 40, but 400 HIMARS launcher units and a thousand, not 80 tanks," declared the minister.
He emphasized that it would be good to support Ukraine with "everything necessary for victory."
"This will be a deterrent signal to Putin," he said.
Lithuania's assistance to Ukraine
It has recently been revealed that damaged Leopard tanks, which suffered during combat operations in Ukraine, will be repaired in Lithuania.
Additionally, Lithuania plans to allocate around 340 million euros in assistance to Ukraine next year, with a portion of the funds allocated to the education sector.
A month ago, Lithuania provided sets of radar equipment for the needs of the Ukrainian Naval Forces.
