"All we need are two Patriot systems. Russia will not be able to occupy Kharkiv if we have those," Zelenskyy said.
Asked by a journalist whether the delay of $60 billion in US aid was to blame for what is happening in Kharkiv, the president said it was the fault of the whole world.
"They gave the opportunity for Putin to occupy. But now the world can help," he emphasized.
The Ukrainian leader also noted that the situation is "very serious."
"We cannot afford to lose Kharkiv," he emphasized.
