Zelensky thanks Latvia for another military aid package
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed gratitude to the Latvian government for the decision to provide a new military assistance package with a special emphasis on the supply of additional air defense systems and drones.
The head of state announced this on the social network X, Ukrinform reports.
"I thank Latvia and Prime Minister Evika Silina for today's decision to provide a new military assistance package with a special emphasis on the supply of additional air defense systems and drones," Zelensky wrote.
He noted that "we extremely appreciate Latvia's stable support for Ukraine in the amount of 0.25% of GDP per year, as well as the clarity of the goal."
"Russia is a threat to the existence of everyone in Europe, not just Ukraine. By protecting the lives of Ukrainians from Russian terror, we are protecting the entire Euro-Atlantic community for decades to come," the President emphasized.
As reported by Ukrinform, on April 30, the Latvian government approved a new batch of military aid to Ukraine, which will include, among other things, short-range anti-aircraft guns and surveillance drones.
