"Azov" is still not allowed to receive US aid, - Prokopenko

Commander Denys Prokopenko said that the Azov brigade is still not allowed to receive US assistance, and Zelenskyy refused to resolve this issue.

According to him, the team twice tried to submit a petition on the website of the President of Ukraine, but they refused to publish it. The OP referred that this issue is not within the competence of Zelenskyy.

The point is that the US itself is prohibiting the supply of American weapons to Azov.

“This was a consequence of amendments to US laws, which have been in force since 2017 and block the provision of weapons and training or other assistance to Azov,” recall the brigade commander.

In a petition to Zelenskyy, the “Azovtsi” wanted to call on the leadership of Ukraine “to make every effort to ensure that the amendment banning the provision of American weapons to Azov is removed from US laws.”
