Zelensky: Ukraine Needs Missiles and Continued Sanctions Most from Allies

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated on 22 October that there are two things his country currently needs most from its allies: missiles and the preservation of sanctions against Russia.

With this, the head of the Ukrainian state named two main areas where Kyiv wants to see allied action at the moment. One concerns weapons supplies, the other concerns pressure on Russia exercised through restrictive measures.

The source gives no further details on what kind of missiles Ukraine wants to receive or in what quantities, which countries should be involved, or which sanctions regimes are under discussion. The circumstances of Zelensky's statement and its intended audience are also not specified.
