NATO members reaffirmed their commitment to further strengthen Ukraine’s defense during a NATO-Ukraine Council meeting, which brought together officials from Ukraine and the Western military alliance, NATO said on Wednesday.
“Ukraine continues to intercept Russian missiles on a daily basis, saving countless lives. However, Ukraine’s ability to maintain its defense requires increased supplies and more support,” said NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in a statement.
“In light of the recent Russian assault, allies today reaffirmed that they are increasing their military assistance to Ukraine. We must continue to provide Ukraine with the equipment and ammunition it needs to defend itself against Russia’s invasion. This is vital for Ukraine’s ability to remain in the fight,” Reuters reported.
