McConnell said this on September 14 in the Senate.
The US senator emphasized that Ukrainian troops "work miracles" with Western equipment - they quickly mastered such advanced systems as HIMARS, Javelin and Stinger.
"The Ukrainians need more weapons than what we're giving them. They need to start getting them faster, and they need new capabilities, such as long-range ATACMS missiles, large drones and tanks," McConnell said.
He clarified that Western Europe must also join in helping Ukraine by accelerating and increasing the amount of its contribution.
The Republican leader called for the expansion of American capabilities in the production of critical munitions and systems.
