“On June 15, a meeting of the contact group in support of Ukraine, created a couple of months ago at the base in Ramstein, will be held at NATO headquarters in Brussels.
It coordinates the supply of weapons, military equipment, including heavy weapons to Ukraine, ”RIA Novosti quotes Stoltenberg as saying following informal talks in The Hague with representatives of the leadership of the seven countries of the alliance.
He noted that Ukraine should have more heavy weapons.
Earlier, a senior White House official said that a new package of US military assistance to Ukraine would include HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems.
As Aleksey Arestovich, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, said, Kyiv will give Washington an "exemplary hysteria" if the country is not provided with MLRS.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that Kyiv's demands to the West for the supply of multiple launch rocket systems are a direct provocation aimed at drawing other countries into the situation in Ukraine.
