Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for heavy weapons, which his country needed for a victory against Russia.

The United States has promised further deliveries in the form of the Patriot air defense system, but that is not enough, according to Zelenskyj.

Instead, he called for American tanks and planes.

So far, the US government under Joe Biden has provided nearly $22 billion in military aid to Kyiv.
