President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported this in an interview with The New York Times.
According to the president, the large number of S-300 missiles is an advantage of the aggressor country in the war.
«This is their huge advantage. The shelling of Kharkiv, all the deaths of people and children are their huge advantage. The daily use of bombs is their huge advantage. Use of S-300 systems — they have accumulated 10,000 S-300 missiles. 10,000 is again their advantage,» Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted.
He also added that there are appropriate weapons in the world capable of resisting Russia's attacks, but there are not enough of them in Ukraine.
«Does the world have adequate weapons to counter this? So. Is there a suitable weapon better than what is in Russia's arsenal? So. Does Ukraine have both of these elements — sufficient quantity and permission? There is none,» the president emphasized.
It was previously reported that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy does not believe that Ukraine can be prohibited from using Western weapons against enemy objects on the territory of Russia, since it is fighting for its defense, not for attack.
