Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that the ongoing war in Iran is negatively affecting the situation in Europe, particularly Russia's war against Ukraine. He stated that Russia shows no intention of reducing its strikes, while the United States may ease pressure on Moscow due to the conflict in the Middle East. Zelensky expressed concern that this shift could lead to a critical shortage of weapons for Ukraine, especially air defense systems, as US attention and resources are diverted.
