NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg met with President Volodomyr Zelenkskyy during a surprise trip to Kyiv.
In a joint press conference, Stoltenberg stressed that members of the military alliance would keep providing Ukraine with ammunition.
Speaking at a joint press conference with Zelenskyy, NATO chief says Ukrainian forces are “gradually gaining ground” in their counteroffensive against Russia.
Stoltenberg also said Russian troops were fighting for Moscow’s “imperial delusions”.
He added that NATO has framework contracts in place for 2.4 billion euros ($2.53bn) of ammunition for Ukraine, including 1 billion euros ($1.05bn) in firm orders.
