KYIV, May 4 – President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on partners to remove all taboos on weapons supply to Ukraine.

"The more powerful the weapon and the longer the fire range is, the more lives are saved from enemy strikes. So, cherishing the value of life and maintaining defensive taboos among allies who are supposed to protect life – is an obvious contradiction," he said in his address to the Dutch Parliament on Thursday.

"The longer the taboos on weapons persist – the more our soldiers give their lives on maintaining the defense when the weapons are not powerful or not long-ranged enough… or when Russian fighter jets are more effective than the aircrafts of those who really defend Europe," the head of state said.
