“The support I have felt this week is definitely worth continuing. The illegal sanctions did not tie my hands. First and foremost, they weakened our soldiers. The Poroshenko Foundation’s assistance to the Armed Forces is 150 million UAH every month,” Poroshenko emphasized.
“We thought this would last for 3-4 months, but we have been delivering equipment in such volumes for 3 years now. We are forced to continue because the Armed Forces lack weapons and equipment,” states the fifth President.
Poroshenko also noted that illegal sanctions could lead to a reduction in the volume of aid to the Armed Forces by several times: “But we will not stop. As we are doing today, having gathered another shipment of equipment for the front.”
In particular, the airborne assault brigades will receive new excavators for fortification work. Poroshenko reported that now all Airborne Assault Brigades will be equipped with construction machinery.
“A super-modern auto repair workshop, equipped with everything necessary for repairs on the front line — no one else but our team makes them. A command and control complex — they are made, but at five times the cost. Laundry and shower complexes — no one makes them like the ones from the Poroshenko Foundation,” Poroshenko states.
“Assault and evacuation ATVs — they are still being brought in very, very little. ‘Maviks’, night FPVs, 15-inch FPV drones. Charging stations — we bought an entire container of them. Diesel stoves, which thanks to us are in every brigade. The Ministry of Defense and the state only provide potbelly stoves. Dome-based EW systems — it takes most volunteer foundations months to collect funds for one, while we deliver 15 units every week,” the fifth President notes.
“There is nothing more important right now than saving Ukraine. Let’s maintain unity around the Armed Forces – because they are our main guarantee of preserving statehood,” emphasizes Petro Poroshenko.
