It is clear to everyone that 10-12 additional Patriot systems will safeguard life in Ukraine and make the war meaningless for Putin,&#8221; Zelenskyy said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He stressed that protecting Ukraine&#8217;s skies would prevent glide bombs and ballistic missiles from striking civilian infrastructure such as hospitals, schools, and universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I sometimes really don&#8217;t understand one thing: one system costs $1.5 billion. Please, take this money from Russian assets. It will cost $30 billion to finally close our skies. And that&#8217;s it. People will return to normal life, including those who have gone abroad. Children will go to schools and universities everywhere, and the economy will recover,&#8221; Zelenskyy said, adding that this crucial capability is something Ukraine&#8217;s partners already possess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zelenskyy reiterated that NATO remains the best strategic security guarantor for Ukraine. &#8220;There are questions with this. There are questions with some states. This is a question to Biden, not Trump, because the incumbent U.S. president is Joe Biden, and therefore we need to talk to him about this. I have stated this repeatedly,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also said that a formal invitation for Ukraine to join NATO had not yet been approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/uatv.ua\/en\/bulgaria-may-stop-transit-of-russian-gas-to-serbia-due-to-debts\/\">Bulgaria may stop transit of Russian gas to Serbia due to debts<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Ukraine needs an additional 10-12 &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":1058032,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49,36415],"tags":[78],"sources":[],"class_list":["post-1058031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","category-11473-news-en","tag-homepage-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
