Podolyak commented on the suspension of military assistance: Ukraine knows how to adapt to such situations

"Regarding the supply of weapons… First of all, it is necessary to assess which programs will stop functioning. Given the fact that many programs were already at the stage of completion. We should not forget that there are programs approved by Congress, and this is a special legal procedure…".

This was written by the advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Mykhailo Podolyak.

"Secondly, it is necessary to evaluate the possibilities of purchasing or acquiring equivalents from European partners. Especially since replacement programs are already in operation…

Thirdly, let’s not forget that Ukraine has already experienced prolonged suspension of military support programs from the United States and knows how to adapt to such situations…

So we are conducting a thorough audit of what we have, what can be produced within the framework of partnerships, what can be replaced. We are looking for something on commercial markets. We communicate with European partners. And of course, we do not overlook the possibility of negotiations with our American partners," Podolyak concluded.
