Zelensky Says He Needs European Support To Fight Russia For Another 2-3 Years

Zelensky stated Ukraine needs sustained European financial aid for the next two to three years to continue fighting Russia. He indicated the funds would be used for reconstruction if the war ends soon, or for weapons if it continues. The EU is considering a plan to use frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine for this period. NATO allies are committing to buying American-made weapons for Ukraine under a new program. However, a report indicates that military aid to Ukraine has decreased since this initiative began. Zelensky admitted Russian troops have entered Pokrovsk, a key target in the Donetsk region. He also vowed to expand Ukrainian attacks inside Russia, focusing on oil refineries. The US has expanded its support for these long-range strikes with intelligence.
