"On the finish line": Zelensky appreciated the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces and possible supply of ATACMS missiles

The Ukrainian president emphasized that Ukraine needs ATACMS long -range missiles and Patriot complexes. He also answered foreigners who are skeptical of Kyiv's support. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his own assessment of the counter -offensive of the defense forces and responded to criticism of the slow promotion of defenders. This is known with his interview with CNN, published on September 19.

"We are at the finish line, I am sure of that," the Ukrainian leader said, commenting on discussions on the supply of ATACMS missiles. He noted that people who have not seen the war closely do not really realize the level of threat to the attacked country. The politician stressed that the challenges and problems of war should not be compared to internal, that is, for example, in the field of civil law or energy. "It's a different situation.

That's why I think we can't compare these challenges," Zelensky said. According to the President, "no one really knows" whether a large breakthrough in the counter -offensive of the Ukrainian forces is possible this year. "But I think we will have more success," he added. Zelensky emphasized the need to supply the Armed Forces of the ATACMS long -range missiles, without which "greater losses on the battlefield and elsewhere" are possible.

He also recalled that Ukraine needs more air defense systems, including Patriot complexes. The leader noted that they protect civilian areas. We will remind, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that he knows where the Armed Forces will break the defense of the Russian invaders. According to the leader, Vladimir Putin is ready for a long war and seeks to destroy the Ukrainian people, so it is impossible to stop the counter -offensive.
