I am grateful to all our allies for their willingness to provide us with modern and much-needed tanks. Such a statement made the President of Ukraine.

“There is a very powerful step by the United States - this is how the day begins in America. Ukraine will receive Abrams, thank you for this decision.

I personally thank Mr. President Biden, I thank the Congress, I thank every American family for the tangible strength of American global leadership!

I am grateful to all our allies for their willingness to provide us with modern and much-needed tanks.

All this proves the most important fact for the world today – the fact that freedom is only getting stronger. And the way we are all working together to strengthen freedom, to defend Ukraine and Europe, is a historic achievement of the leaders who are working now.

The key thing now is speed and volume. The speed of training of our military, the speed of supplying tanks to Ukraine. The volume of tank support. We must form a tank fist, a fist of freedom whose hits will not let tyranny stand up again. We can do it. Together and only in the same way as we are making decisions today. Important decisions.

It is very important that there is progress in other aspects of our defense cooperation as well”, - said Volodymyr Zelensky.
