President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the main focus of the war has shifted to the struggle for control of the skies, with Ukraine's biggest challenge being protection against ballistic missiles.
He made the remarks in an interview with the Financial Times, as reported by Ukrinform, citing the President's Telegram channel.
"This war is changing. Today, peace and victory are on the side of those who are smarter. It is very difficult for us, but our fighters have stopped the war on the battlefield – the line of contact – with their lives. The war continues, but the front is no longer moving. When the front line is barely moving and the enemy cannot advance by sea, that leaves the skies. Today, the fight is for the skies. This is a shift in the priorities of this war," Zelensky said.
He stressed that one major unknown in this equation is anti-ballistic missile defense.
