Later in the discussion, Pistorius added that he also "fully agrees" with the opinion that Ukraine needs not only a promise of long-term support, but also quick support that will allow it to win as soon as possible.

"But we don't know how long this will last. Therefore, we must prepare to change the volume of weapons production and discuss what to do for the joint purchase of weapons," he said.

Separately, Pistorius stated NATO's intention to protect the states that have already become members of the alliance, in case Russia decides to attack other states as well. "We can and will defend every inch of the alliance's territory," he explained.
