Zelenskyy: Ukraine also communicates with Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq
As of today, Ukraine is substantively cooperating with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar, while work with Jordan and communication with Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq continue, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported.
"As of today, we are already substantively cooperating with Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, and Qatar. Work with Jordan is ongoing. We are also in communication with Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq. Rustem Umerov reported today on planned work with countries outside the Middle East, namely Turkey and some others that have significant potential," Zelenskyy said on his Telegram channel on Wednesday.
In addition, Umerov continues to maintain contact at the political level with partners who are under attack by the Iranian regime.
The president thanked everyone in the world who joins efforts to protect people and critical infrastructure.
"Our military expertise is already yielding results. Our interceptors are already yielding results. We already have several long-term agreements on cooperation and mutual reinforcement and are preparing new solutions," Zelenskyy emphasized.
He noted that Iranian Shaheds and missiles are effectively the same threat "we face in Europe when defending against Russian Shaheds and missiles."
"The blocking of normal navigation in the Strait of Hormuz is effectively the same challenge we faced in Ukraine in 2022 when Russia tried to block our ports and access to the sea – only on a more dangerous scale. No nation should be left alone with terrorist attacks," he said.
