Ukrainian President Zelenskyy Urges U.S. for More Patriot Missiles Amid Russian Threats
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is actively seeking additional Patriot air defense missiles from the United States to counter Russian ballistic missile attacks. During a visit to Sweden, Zelenskyy emphasized the urgency of his request, noting that U.S. stockpiles are being depleted due to the Iran war. He has reached out to President Trump and Congress but has yet to receive a response. The need for these missiles is critical as Russia continues to target Ukraine's infrastructure and cities. Despite the threats, foreign diplomats remain in Kyiv, and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry reports that diplomatic missions are still operational. The situation is tense, with the U.N. Secretary-General warning of potential escalation and calling for de-escalation and a ceasefire.
