Reznikov also noted progress in the air defense and anti-missile defense sector.

"We have already received the Gepard anti-aircraft self-prelled artillery units from Germany. Our specialists are completing their training on modern German Iris-T anti-aircraft systems that will soon make our skies safer. A picy decision was made regarding the NASAMS systems. And this is not to mention the armored vehicles and a substantial amount of other help. All this happened in just 4.5 months," the minister said.

According to him, during 50 days between the fourth and fifth Ramstein meetings, U.S. partners announced five packages of security assistance worth a total of almost $5.5 billion.

"During the meeting, another package for $675 million was announced. It contains very important projectiles for HIMARS and other things that will come in handy during active fighting," Reznikov said.

He thanked U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the U.S. Army, General Mark Milley, whose contribution, according to him, "cannot be overestimated."

The Ukraine Defense Contact Group was created in April at the initiative of the United States. The first meeting took place in Ramstein, Germany, in late April.
