NATO said it is sending advanced weapons to Ukraine to help
the warring country’s army transit from Soviet-era artillery to modern weapons.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday that
the alliance will not stop supporting Ukraine.
“We are extremely focused on stepping up, providing more
support, more advanced weapons … because we support them in their just fight
against the brutal Russian invasion,” Stoltenberg said at a press conference in
Brussels.
He said that Ukraine will continue receiving “practical
support, lethal and non-lethal support from the alliance.”
This, according to him, would enable Ukraine “to continue to
modernize its armed forces, something NATO allies have worked on for many years
but stepped up now,” he said.
“This is our focus and Ukraine’s most urgent need as we
speak,” he added.
