'Peace is over' - Call for west to boost arms production
The Guardian Weekly
|May 03, 2024
Ukraine's foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, praised US politicians last week for approving a long-delayed military aid package, but said western allies needed to recognise that "the era of peace in Europe is over".
As Joe Biden signed the bill that will provide $61bn in military aid, Kuleba said: "Hallelujah." Ukraine had identified seven Patriot air defence systems it could use to protect civilians in major cities outside Kyiv. One had been obtained from Germany, while four more had been located, Kubela said, adding that two more were in his sights.
Cities such as Kharkiv, which has been repeatedly bombed this year, could "live in peace and their industrial production continue", he said, as long as Ukraine's allies adopted a more hard-headed approach to helping his country.
Kubela said Ukraine's allies should switch from "expressing condolences and sympathy to Ukrainians and promising to help with recovery, to preventing loss of life and destruction of the country".
