Quote: "The physical presence of our Forces in Kursk Oblast and our active efforts to eliminate the Russian threat on its own territory are also a way to compensate for the deficit of long-range capabilities."

Details: Zelenskyy noted that the areas Russia uses to launch missile attacks on Ukraine are mainly the airspace of Kursk and Belgorod oblasts, other border regions of Russia, the waters of the Black Sea, and the territory of occupied Crimea.

"Each of these strikes repeatedly brings us back to the task of long-range capabilities – the need to provide our Defense Forces with enough long-range weapons that can destroy terrorists [the Russians – ed.] exactly in the areas of their strikes. This is the optimal counter-terrorism tactic, one that every partner of ours has the right to and would undoubtedly use to protect themselves. And we expect decisions from them – decisions on our long-range capabilities," Zelenskyy noted.
