According to TASS on December 28, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said that Europeans do not know how to fight, and production is not the most popular topic for them.
In an interview with the Kyiv Independent, Kuleba reportedly said: "Europe does not know how to fight. Production is not the most popular business. "Unfortunately, our friends spent too much time discussing how and when to increase the production of ** and ammunition," Kuleba noted. Kuleba also said that the problem is not the quality of the European **, but the inability to increase the production of technical weapons. "If this situation does not change, there will not be enough **," he admitted. Then Russia will overtake us. ”
At the same time, Kuleba spoke about the important role played by the West in equipping the Ukrainian army with modern **, including long-range missiles, and also said that F-16 fighters "are on the way." But the foreign minister noted that he is "more worried about the pace of development of defense production than about the delivery of new types of **."
In this regard, the top Ukrainian diplomat reiterated his point of view: the military-industrial complex of the EU, the United States and its allies needs to coordinate their actions.
Over the past year, Kyiv has received more than $24 billion in military aid from Washington. The EU has provided nearly $90 billion in military aid since February 2022, but Ukraine continues to demand new ammunition and military equipment, including aircraft.
