Zelensky Warns of Putin Response
The article discusses the current state of Ukraine's missile defense system with interceptors. President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed that Ukraine possesses only a tenth of the number of interceptors urgently needed from the United States to counter the increasing Russian missile attacks. He explained that acquiring 5% of the current U.S. stockpile would be sufficient for Ukraine to get through the winter, whereas 10% would be necessary to halt all assaults. Zelensky pointed out a global shortage of these missiles due to the war with Iran, which is putting considerable pressure on Ukraine's defenses and fueling his ongoing efforts to secure more interceptors through secret deals. He also emphasized the importance of licensing local production of Patriot missiles for Ukraine but noted that achieving this remains a significant challenge, with doubts about its actual implementation amidst political and military obstacles.
