As second Russian offensive looms, Ukraine’s foreign minister has single message for NATO: ‘Weapons, weapons, weapons’

‘WEAPONS, WEAPONS, WEAPONS’: A grim-faced Dmytro Kuleba arrived at NATO headquarters this morning in Brussels to deliver a concise message to his fellow foreign ministers on behalf of Ukraine, which is bracing to repel a major offensive by Russian forces in the eastern Donbas region.

“My agenda is very simple. It only has three items on it. It’s weapons, weapons, and weapons,” said Kuleba, standing next to Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg in NATO’s cavernous headquarters as ministers gathered for two days of urgent meetings. “The more weapons we get, and the sooner they arrive in Ukraine, the more human lives will be saved.”
