"I would like to commend our partners and our air force. What is happening with the strengthening of air defence is very important. This winter is different, with challenges, losses, and difficulties. But we are getting stronger and more powerful. I had a serious business trip. Several new Patriot systems will be in Ukraine to protect our country in winter. This is a very significant result," the president said.
