At Reykjavik summit, Zelensky called for equipping AFU brigades, investing more in weapons production

According to the President's website, Zelensky said this in Reykjavik during a speech at the Ukraine-Northern Eure Summit, Ukrinform reports.

The head of state thanked Iceland, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Norway for military aid packages and support for Ukrainian defense production.

The President called for joining the equipment of brigades, increasing investments in the production of weapons in Ukraine, including long-range missiles, drones and electronic warfare systems, and in the purchase of artillery ammunition for Ukrainian sdiers in third countries, as well as taking measures against the Russian shadow fleet.

“We see Putin is ramping up his arms production and rogue regimes like Pyongyang are aiding him. Next year, as we understand, Putin aims to match the EU’s production of munitions. We can only prevent this now,” Vodymyr Zelensky said.

He also emphasized that it is important for Ukraine to receive an invitation to join the North Atlantic Alliance.

“When Ukraine receives an invitation to NATO, it will become an unbreakable defensive wall against Russia’s imperial ambitions. Russia must end its aggressive stance, and that starts with letting go of its ambitions over Ukraine,” the Head of State noted.
