In terms of the scale, intensity, and brutality of the attacks, winter has already come to Ukraine. That is why we are urging our partners to help us complete the winter air defence package through PURL, donations from existing stocks, and swaps of Patriot interceptors. This is precisely why we initiated a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council ahead of the next Ukraine Defense Contact Group (UDCG) meeting with two excellent briefers from Ukraine @SergiyBoyev @SerhiiSobko . The decisions our NATO partners make in the coming weeks will determine how Ukraine gets through this winter. The sooner political decisions are made, and the shorter the gap between decisions and actual deliveries, the more lives we will save and the stronger Ukraine’s position will be. @UKRinNATO Thank you, @NATO, for convening the meeting.
