After Ukrainian counterattack, there should be no doubt that Ukraine can defeat Russia – Kuleba

EUROPEAN PRAVDA - TUESDAY, 13 SEPTEMBER 2022, 09:32

Dmytro Kuleba, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, has urged the West to step up arms supplies to Ukraine amid a successful counterattack of Ukrainian defenders. Kuleba emphasised that this will help to end this full-scale war faster. 

Kuleba stated this in an interview with Politico, reports European Pravda.

"We are turning the tide and need more heavy weapons and ammunition from our allies to build upon the momentum, save more people, and liberate more of Ukraine’s territories faster," the Ukrainian Foreign Minister said. 

Kuleba said that the Ukrainian advance in the east and in the south proves that "all the investments that our Western partners have made in our defence capabilities do yield astonishing results". 

"The more military support we receive now, the faster this war will end. This is why Ukraine calls on its partners to focus on the schedule: prompt supplies of what the Ukrainian army needs will bring victory and peace closer," he added.

The Foreign Minister believes that "there should be no doubt now that Ukraine can win and Russia can be defeated on the battlefield." 

Background: Ukrainian defenders have started to counterattack not only in Kherson Oblast, but also in Kharkiv Oblast in the last few days. According to British intelligence information, the Armed Forces of Ukraine defeated Russian troops that were intended to lead counter-attacks in the case of a war with NATO.
