President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Ukraine's allies to help improve the country's air defense in the face of continued Russian attacks, as talks on the peace plan proposed by the US began in Geneva, DPA reported, quoted by BTA.
Noting the start of the talks involving the US, Germany, Britain and France, Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram: “In parallel with the diplomatic path, we must do everything possible to strengthen our defense against these brutal Russian attacks.“
The Ukrainian president added: “It is very important to accelerate all our agreements with our partners on air defense systems and missiles.
The talks in Geneva today are dedicated to discussing Trump's 28-point plan to end the war that began with the Russian invasion in February 2022.
The plan calls for Ukraine to make territorial and other concessions, and Zelensky said the country was facing "one of the most difficult moments in our history."
In his Telegram post, Zelensky said that Russia had launched more than 1,050 drones, about 1,000 glide bombs and more than 60 missiles and cruise missiles against Ukraine in the past week.
