Previously, Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK, Vadim Prystaiko, spoke in an interview with Newsweek about the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine: aforementionedHe said most of the weapons that arrived were quite old and some were even expired. The diplomat added that they were joking in Ukraine: if countries want to dispose of weapons, it will be better to send them to Kiev, where they will find use.
He also said that the Allies were not providing weapons from their old stockpiles as much as the country needed. According to him, Ukraine needs more air defense, battle tanks, warplanes and long-range shells. Prystaiko also expressed his happiness with the planned deliveries of Patriot air defense systems.
