The former president of Ukraine and leader of the ‘European Solidarity’ party Petro Poroshenko who is participating in the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, at a meeting with the delegation of Germany, called on German deputies to a new format of support for Ukraine.

Poroshenko called for a new dimension of military support for Ukraine from the West, noting that the existing aid framework is insufficient to defeat the aggressor.

‘Germany should confirm its strategic leadership and promote the growth of military aid to Ukraine, give the Armed Forces the right to use Western weapons against targets on the territory of Russia, place German armed contingents, joint military enterprises and warehouses on the territory of Ukraine, as well as increase supplies of high-precision weapons to Ukraine,’ Poroshenko said.

In addition, Petro Poroshenko called on the German leaders to approve an important decision regarding the invitation of Ukraine to join the NATO.
