Ukraine, together with its European partners, is promoting the creation of an anti-ballistic missile coalition. Today, representatives of 13 countries and the NATO Secretary General's office took part in the meeting, and the initiative is close to practical results.
A key meeting in Europe
An important meeting took place at the level of national security advisers, which could change the balance of power in the European security sphere. According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Representatives of 13 countries and the NATO Secretary General's office joined the discussion of the production of anti-ballistic systems. According to the Ukrainian side, the formation of an anti-ballistic missile coalition in Europe is in the final stages.
This cooperation was made possible by the steadfast position of Ukraine and its partners. Joining forces in missile defence is a response to the current security challenges facing the region.
Ukrainian positions and international support
President Zelenskyy emphasised that today Ukrainian positions at the front, Ukraine's defence, sanctions policy and cooperation with partners are the strongest in years. He stressed that every joint step with European allies makes Ukraine's defence more powerful and its foreign policy positions more beneficial for the country. All these efforts are aimed at helping Ukraine and strengthening its resilience to threats.
Ukraine's anti-ballistic missile initiative has received support not only at the political but also at the practical level. The formation of the coalition will allow European countries to counter missile threats more effectively, as well as to ensure the protection of civilians and critical infrastructure.
United for security
Zelenskyy thanked all Ukrainians who remain united in their desire to protect the country's independence and sovereignty. He stressed that victory is possible only through joint efforts, and that the stability of the state depends on the unity of citizens and partners. Ukraine will not give up its land and sovereignty, and the main goal of guaranteeing the security of the people remains unchanged.
Why it matters
The creation of an anti-ballistic missile coalition in Europe strengthens the defence capabilities of not only Ukraine but the entire region. It is a strategic response to current security challenges that allows countries to act together and effectively. The support of partners and practical steps in missile defence show that Ukraine remains an integral part of the European security architecture.
