If the delivery of American aid is delayed, Ukraine will suffer losses, said President Zelensky, commenting on the unblocking of appropriations for the Armed Forces in Congress.
Asked by NBC News whether this aid would help Ukraine win the war or just prolong it, Zelenskyy replied: “It depends on when we actually get the weapons on the ground. As you said, Kristen, if we get it in half a year - well, we're going to be stuck for half a year, and we're going to have losses on a number of fronts. Losses in people, in technology."
According to Zelensky, "now we have a chance to stabilize the situation and seize the initiative, so we really need to have weapons systems."
He added that Ukraine now needs long-range weapons, because "our weapons are not so long-range." "We need [this] and air defense. These are our priorities now," Zelenskyy said.
