The Ukrainian minister called on NATO member states to send more aircraft, anti-aircraft defense systems, missiles and military vehicles to his country.

Coming to the NATO Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Brussels, in which he will take part, Dmitry Kuleba reiterated Kiev’s request to exclude all Russian banks from the SWIFT system, as well as to assure that all ports will be closed to Russian ships and Russian goods.

Dmitro Kuleba, however, commented that a week ago the sanctions were “much weaker”.

Asked about Germany’s stance, he noted that “it took a revolutionary step in changing its position from not agreeing to provide arms to allowing certain supplies.” However, he added that he could do more and that there was now co-operation with the German government in providing additional equipment.

“The issue that concerns me the most is the length of the proceedings and the decision-making process in Berlin. “Because Berlin has time, while Kyiv does not have time,” he said.

“My agenda is simple, it includes only three things: weapons, ammunition and weapons,” he said.

“We are convinced that the best way to help Ukraine is to provide it with everything it needs to defeat the Russian army,” he said.

He added that Ukrainians know how to fight, how to win, but reiterated that they need more weapons.

“The more weapons we receive and the sooner they reach Ukraine, the more lives will be saved, the fewer towns and villages will be destroyed and there will be no more Butsa,” he said.
