The deoccupation of our territories depends on the supply of weapons to Ukraine, delay threatens stagnation on the front – President

The speed of deoccupation of the territories of our state depends on the supply of weapons to Ukraine, and any delays in this matter threaten stagnation on the front. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during an online press conference for Danish media.

"I am grateful that it is coming (weaponry - ed.). But it must come faster if we all live by the same goal - to have peace, to have no war in Europe and so that this war of the Russian Federation does not go to other countries, to the European Union and NATO countries. And I am sure that it has such dreams and thoughts," the Head of State said.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed that the future aggressor's plans for other states depend on the strength and resilience of Ukraine.

"I am sure that if Ukraine is not strong, they will move on. Kyiv is not the finish line in their marathon. This is the beginning for them. We have shown our strength, and now it is very important that our Western partners show this strength together with us," said the President of Ukraine.

According to the President, if the supply of weapons is delayed, the war in Ukraine will become stagnant.

"Everyone will stand still. There will be a move of one or another side one to five kilometers forward, and then - one to five kilometers back. If we get more weapons requested from our partners, we will start moving forward," the President said.
