Ukraine announced that it received over 1,550 armored vehicles, 230 tanks, and vast amounts of ammunition. These are just among military related equipment and ammunition that NATO and NATO partner countries promised to provide Ukraine. The\u00a0Ukrainians are continuing to slug it out with the Russians\u00a0and are expected to conduct a counteroffensive in the near future.<\/p>\n

NATO allies and partner countries have delivered more than 98% of the combat vehicles promised to Ukraine during Russia’s invasion and war, the military alliance’s chief said Thursday, giving Kyiv a bigger punch as contemplates launching a counteroffensive.<\/p>\n

Along with more than 1,550 armored vehicles, 230 tanks and other equipment, Ukraine’s allies have sent “vast amounts of ammunition” and also trained and equipped more than nine new Ukrainian brigades, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said.<\/p>\n

More than 30,000 troops are estimated to make up the new brigades. Some NATO partner countries, such as Sweden and Australia, have also provided armored vehicles.<\/p>\n

“This will put Ukraine in a strong position to continue to retake occupied territory,” Stoltenberg told reporters in Brussels.<\/p>\n

His comments came a day after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he and Chinese leader Xi Jinping had a “long and meaningful” phone call in their first known contact since Russia’s full-scale invasion more than a year ago.<\/p>\n

Though Zelenskyy said he was encouraged by Wednesday’s call and Western officials welcomed Xi’s move, the development didn’t appear to bring about any immediate shift in peace prospects.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
