If the delivery of American aid is delayed, Ukraine will suffer losses, - Zelenskyy

President Zelenskyy, commenting on the unblocking of allocations for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Congress, said that if the delivery of American aid is delayed, Ukraine will suffer losses.

Asked by NBC News whether this aid would help Ukraine win the war or just prolong it, Zelenskyy replied: "It depends on when we actually get weapons on the ground. Like you said, Kristen, if we get it in six months, well, "The process will stall for six months and we will suffer losses in several areas. Losses in people and equipment."

According to Zelenskyy, “now we have a chance to stabilize the situation and seize the initiative, so we really need to have weapons systems.”

He added that Ukraine now needs long-range weapons, because “our weapons are not that long-range.” "We need [this] and air defense. These are our priorities now," Zelenskyy said.
