"This is funny": the DPRK was a more effective partner for the Russian Federation than friends for Ukraine - Kuleba

Ukraine is critical of weapons, and it costs many military life. Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleb criticized partners for being "sinking in discussions" when they need to "swim". Ukraine lacks weapons, including air defense systems and missiles. The situation is critical, and this prove the shelling of the Russian army of Kharkiv and Kiev. This was stated in an interview with Bild Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba.

"Although Ukraine has increased its production significantly and continue to do it, we still see that the Western defense industry - that is, the defense industry of the states that help us is unable to produce enough artillery ammunition," he said. The official stressed that Russia has a clear advantage in artillery ammunition, and one of the reasons for this is the supply from the DPRK.

"No matter how funny it sounds, it seems that North Korea for Russia is a more effective partner than friends who supply artillery ammunition to Ukraine. It's funny. And it should change," Kuleba said. According to him, the defense on the front in the face of lack of artillery ammunition costs many soldiers of Ukraine. "Although we appreciate everything we get, the scale of war demand more," the minister explained.

He urged the Allies of Ukraine to stop blaming each other of insufficiently increasing production. "When it comes to specific decisions, we see how our partners sometimes sink in endless discussions. But there is no time to sink, we need to swim," Kuleba emphasized. We will remind, in the White House they told what the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was hunted during the shelling of civil infrastructure in Kyiv and Kharkiv.
