Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed that his most immediate concern is the Patriots — essential for intercepting Russian ballistic missiles — as Ukraine still lacks an effective alternative.
These U.S. systems were never delivered in sufficient quantities to begin with, Zelensky said, and if the Iran war doesn’t end soon, “the package — which is not very big for us — I think will be smaller and smaller day by day.”
“That’s why, of course, we are afraid,” he said.
Zelensky has accused Russia of “trying to drag out negotiations” while it presses on with its invasion. (AP)
