Ukraine will receive additional batches of interceptor missiles for Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems . This was announced by President Volodymyr Zelensky at the second National Forum of Talented Youth, Ukrinform reports .

According to him, a corresponding agreement was reached during yesterday’s meeting with the US President.

“I spoke with President Trump, and I received, I won’t say how many PAC-3 missiles for Patriot,” he said.

Shortage of anti-aircraft missiles in Ukraine

As UNIAN reported, Volodymyr Zelenskyy previously said that Ukraine periodically faces a shortage of anti-aircraft missiles for its existing air defense systems. For example, he admitted that on the morning of January 16, “several air defense systems” were without missiles . And he said this only because at the time of the statement, these missiles had already arrived from partners.

“You can’t blame only the US here. Because we are talking about all the systems that protect our energy sector. The issue is not only with Patriot systems. There will never be enough of them. A lot of different systems were brought to Ukraine during the war. This requires different missile packages,” Zelenskyy said then.
