On armoured personnel carriers – Rosomak – 200 vehicles, 100 now and 100 later. More self-propelled mortars, additional missiles, MiGs [fighter aircraft – ed.]...
There are also important agreements on the economy, on the reconstruction of Ukraine – in particular, for our Kharkiv Oblast."

"In particular, training our doctors in comprehensive care for burns patients, and emergency air evacuation of the wounded, particularly in war zones. Dozens of our doctors have already undergone or are undergoing such training. And the project will continue – rehabilitation training, training for Ukrainian psychologists," he said.
