Ukraine needs 10 times more weapons to complete the war with the Russian Federation this year - the Foreign Ministry

According to the Foreign Minister Andriy Melnik, the US assistance in Land League in the Second World War was 700-800 billion in the current prices, and Ukraine was only given 55 billion, so this is not enough. The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Melnyk said that the country's allies should increase assistance 10 times to complete the war in 2023. He wrote about it in his Twitter on April 22.

Andriy Melnyk noted that Ukraine is grateful to the Allies for the military assistance provided, but this is still not enough. He urged the Western countries to cross through those artificial red lines that remained - these are long -range weapons and fighters. The further the war lasts, the more Ukraine will depend on the supply of weapons and ammunition.

The Foreign Ministry Zam head has stressed that there are a number of countries that have been maintained from military assistance to Ukraine, so Ukrainian diplomacy has something to work on. "Therefore, we urge our partners to cross all artificial red lines and allocate 1% of GDP for supplying weapons of Ukraine," the diplomat wrote. He also expressed the confidence that the world has the necessary resources to complete the war in 2023.

Melnyk compared the current fighting with the Second World War when the US government assisted with Landliza for $ 50 billion. However, at the present prices, the amount of assistance is about $ 700-800 billion. "Our allies should be aware of the scale of this war, the help should be increased by at least 10 times right now," Melnyk emphasized.
