The President also thanked partners for the decision to bster Ukraine's air defenses with five additional Patriot systems. He noted that more such air defense systems are needed because Ukraine has a large territory, and Russia uses and combines different types of missiles and changes tactics.

Ukraine needs long-range weapons and permission to use them against airfields on Russian territory from where aircraft that constantly launch guided bombs at our country take off. In addition, Ukraine is eagerly awaiting F-16 fighter jets. Both the timing of their arrival and the number of aircraft are important.

"Russia is using 300 combat aircraft against Ukraine. We need at least 128 aircraft to counter them, and these numbers are known to our partners," the President emphasized.

As reported, the NATO summit is taking place in Washington on July 9-11, with the participation of the Ukrainian delegation headed by President Vodymyr Zelensky.
