This was stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg following a meeting of the foreign ministers of the alliance countries in Brussels.

“Allies understand the urgency of providing assistance. They also understand the urgency of providing air defense systems. They will now return and see if there is an opportunity to provide more systems, in particular Patriot, as well as shells and spare parts for air defense systems that have already been provided,” TASS quotes him as saying.

Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said that he was forced to “spoil the party” on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of NATO and would continue to ask the West for supplies of the next Patriot missile systems.
