Xinhua News Agency, June 3, according to a report by Ukrainian Free Television on June 3, Ukrainian President Zelansky said in an interview with the Washington Post that he was ready to launch a counteroffensive. Zelansky said that although Ukraine wants to acquire more types of weapons, the country cannot wait a few months to launch a counteroffensive. He stressed that the "Patriot" air defense system is very important, and Ukraine needs at least 50 such systems, otherwise it will lose its air supremacy, which is very dangerous for any counteroffensive.
