“We have enough weapons. “What we do not have enough is the range weapons needed to reduce the Russian Federation’s arms advantage.” Ukrainian President during an online press conference organized by the publishing house Berlingske Media of Denmark.

Earlier, o German Chancellor Olaf Solts rejected once again the criticism of the Ukrainian side that Germany is delaying the delivery of heavy weapons.

“Germany will hand over all the weapons systems that have been announced,” he said, adding that “really effective assistance” must be given to Ukraine.

“It would be wrong to just hand over modern weapons systems, such as the Panzerhaubitzer 2000 self-propelled guns, without instructions, without training. “Training is currently taking place in Germany,” the chancellor said after meeting with the prime ministers of the eastern states, adding that the same was true of the Gepard anti-aircraft gun.

“Our goal is to offer Ukraine really effective assistance. The Ukrainian army must be able to use heavy equipment in the war against Russia. “But it needs to be trained for this,” he said, referring to other state-of-the-art systems Germany will provide to Ukraine, such as the Cobra surveillance radar and the Iris-T air defense system already announced.

“Russia is not allowed to win and will not win this war,” Soltz said after meeting with the Slovak prime minister on Monday night and promised that Slovakia would continue to be supported by Germany for airspace defense. “Germany will defend every square centimeter of NATO territory,” he said.
