According to him, the supply of these weapons suggests that Ukrainian terrorists will have to be pushed out from the borders of the republic even further than previously planned, so that the militants would not be able to reach civilians in the DPR with their shelling.
“While this process – the liberation of the territory – is underway, then, of course, now it would be time to think about additional air defense and missile defense systems,” TASS quoted him as saying.
Pushilin has previously said that Russian forces in the Donetsk People's Republic are trying to push the line of contact away from major cities.
