President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker. The head of state reported this on Telegram, UNN writes.
I am glad to welcome U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker in Kyiv again – this time together with the Commander of the NATO Special Mission for Security Assistance and Training for Ukraine, Lieutenant General Curtis Buzzard- the statement reads.
A conversation took place regarding strengthening the protection of Ukrainian skies, in particular increasing the supply of interceptors for Patriot systems within the framework of PURL. This remains one of the key priorities amid ongoing massive Russian attacks.
The sides also discussed the bilateral defense partnership between the U.S. and Ukraine, including the implementation of the decision to grant Ukraine a license for the production of Patriot, adopted by President Donald Trump in Ankara, as well as the agreement on drones, which is currently being worked on by teams from both countries. It is expected that these arrangements may be finalized in the near future.
I awarded Curtis Buzzard the Order of Merit, III degree. Thank you for being with us all these years of aggression. Ukraine is grateful to President Trump, the U.S. Congress, and the American people for their support- Zelenskyy added.
