Stoltenberg says NATO countries not giving Ukraine ‘enough ammunition’ • FRANCE 24 English
NATO Chief Yen stoltenberg focused on Ukraine in a press conference today following the release of this year’s annual NATO report we’re going to talk more about that with kavan gorgani Kean what were his key me messages today well as you can expect there was a lot of
Talk about Ukraine about the need to send more military aid to the ukrainians and he had uh this strong line which is that the ukrainians don’t need more courage they need more ammunition so the message was very clear to all of the NATO allies that Ukraine needs your
Support it needs more of your support and it needs it right now uh he basically said that NATO allies had stepped up their help but that it was not enough that they needed to provide Ukraine with more Aid and that they needed to look more in the long term
Rather than having the ukrainians wondering every uh few months whether they were going to receive more Aid or not he was asked specifically about the United States of course we know that that Aid for Ukraine is blocked in Congress there and while he did say that
It was important for the Americans to uh send more military aid to the ukrainians he also pointed to the Europeans he said yes we’re focused on the Americans but the European allies also need to do more also uh need to step up and he said that
This was a question of political will he said all of our economies can afford to send more Aid to Ukraine the question is is do we have the political will or not to do that and he says in the meantime while we wait Russia is making some of these advances because the ukrainians
Are lacking the ammunition that they need to continue uh the fight he also had of course a message for Russia telling Vladimir Putin that yes there were some advances for Russia right now because of this lack of uh aid but he said that overall uh Vladimir Putin had
Failed uh he said that uh Putin went to war to slam the NATO door shut he failed pointing of course to the addition of Finland and Sweden just recently joining NATO and saying what he has said multiple times in the past that because of this war Ukraine is now a closer to
Nato than it ever was before all right kathan thanks for that FR 24 is Kath van Gorges Don
NATO head Jens Stoltenberg said on Thursday alliance members “are not providing Ukraine with enough ammunition” and the shortfall has allowed Russia to push Kyiv’s forces back. FRANCE 24’s Kethevane Gorjestani tells us more.

Ukrania is doing well,…they know now what to do😊
I like the way you think…what he said. We don’t need your poor interpretation of what he said. Are you trying to manipulate?
Zelenski just said the russians are in kiev
From Zelensky to Nato, everyone's acting like cry babies, always being sorry and always complaining.
Does NATO give weapons to every country that is at war ;; what makes Ukraine so special or is it because they are the once that dragged Ukraine into this war..
It is time for a change, we need a military man leading NATO and not a soft spoken economist! After all NATO is there for our defence not for our economy!
Pssst, Ukraine isn't a part of NATO …
They act like Russia is untouchable. Maybe they are right after all.
They are giving enough ammunitions because they don’t have themselves enough to give to someone else
Am I the only one who thought "Fran Fine"?
They were loosing before the shortage of ammo, they have a shortage of men. Just start negotiations already.
Wow truth is hate speech
Damn straight..
what if I said "Sunshine and lollipops!" is that hate speech too? there is allot of sugar in lollipops you could die from that.
What is Germany's NATO membership based on gassing Jews? and what if Palestinians were Ukrainians would that OK? just more Euro double standards
Good. Shouldn't have let Victoria Nuland and Boris Johnson talk you into war you can't win.
If you want someone that can more effectively and persuasively speak to Americans get a British person to be Secretary General of NATO. This is an American person’s perspective. We like how they speak.
Five eyes of lies!!!
All the NATO allies sound like handicap peace maker and not a war alliance stoppers, mostly all the NATO members looks like retirement military forces and not an active military force.
NATO doesn't have weapons anymore
Trump will fire Stoltenberg because he is a costly waste of space !
When one see the likes of Stoltenberg, I feel it will be better if the whole of Europe is ruled by Putin. He can make decisions and he is unflinching !
Jens thinks he is the pope 😂😂😂😂😂
