Foreign Minister of Ukraine: Strikes in Russia with Western weapons will weaken the terror of Russian missiles

Minister for Foreign Affairs Dmytro Kuleba of Ukraine emphasized the need to support Ukraine's use of Western weapons against legitimate military targets on the territory of the Russian Federation, Ukrinform reports.

The head of Ukrainian diplomacy stated this during a video conference address to the participants of the annual meeting of Lithuanian ambassadors in Vilnius, Ukrinform reports with reference to the MFA press service.

Kuleba recalled the recent brutal Russian shelling, in particular the attack on the Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv, and once again emphasized the need to support Ukraine's use of Western weapons against legitimate military targets inside Russia.

"We must destroy Russian bombers before they drop deadly guided aerial bombs on our positions, cities and communities. This will significantly weaken Russian air terror. I will be grateful for your help in convincing partners of the need to make this decision a reality," said the minister.

He also emphasized the importance of utilizing NATO's capabilities to protect at least part of the Ukrainian sky in the west of the country.
