According to the state leader, the Armed Forces need not only rockets. The military in the war zone also lacks Patriot complexes to effectively destroy the enemy's equipment. The Ukrainian military cannot get missiles to Patriot complexes because Ukraine is in line for them. This was stated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a joint press conference with Estonia President Alarm Caris in Kiev, June 2. According to the state leader, the Armed Forces need not only rockets.

The military in the war zone also lacks Patriot complexes. "We already see without what amount of Patriot it will be difficult for us. Our task is not 70-75 percent of goals, but 100 percent," Zelensky said. The President also said that there is a shortage of weapons in the Western and in the USA. That is why Ukraine is in line for their receipt.

During the press conference, the Ukrainian leader also told that he discussed the creation of a Patriot Coalition with those countries that were previously ready to join the fighter coalition. We will remind, on June 1 it became known that the Prime Minister of the Netherlands urged to strengthen military assistance to the Ukrainian military.

The Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte noted that the summit is planned to discuss the strengthening of Ukraine's air defense, including the possibility of supplying new Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems. On the same day, Poland's Government Mateusz Moravetsky stated that countries are ready to quickly put Patriot SCC to Ukraine.
