According to the politician, Ukraine has a "victory formula", but also requires support from Western allies. Some fighter jets are not enough, we need ATACMS missiles and more. Former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko said that Ukraine is doing everything possible to increase the combat capabilities of the Armed Forces. A 57-year-old politician said this in an interview with Sky News reporters. According to Poroshenko, Kyiv has a "victory formula", but support from Western allies is needed.

Only fighters do not solve the problem, but they will allow to fight the predominant aviation of the Russian Federation. "We have enough weapons to restrain Putin, but not enough to perform an effective operation and reject Putin from Ukrainian land," he said. Poroshenko urged Western countries to continue supplying the air defense tanks and means, and also emphasized the need for missiles of a large radius of action and ammunition.

He also urged the countries to work together so that in March and April, Ukraine could go into counter -offensive and expel Russia beyond its borders and then officially join NATO. "We are not only fighting for our land in Ukraine, not only for our people, we protect the free democratic world," he said. It should be reminded that Copenhagen is "open" to the supply of fighters to Ukraine, while the official Madrid will "study" the request of Kiev and consider it "legitimate".
