Ukraine has enough weapons to counterattack against Russian forces, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said on Monday.

These weapons will bring your country the victory it needs for Ukraine to join NATO. However, Ukraine’s NATO membership will “probably” be possible only with the end of the fighting

Kuleba admitted in a statement to the Reuters news agency.

As he said, the next major goal of the Kyiv leadership is NATO membership, after its allies gave their consent to the training of Ukrainian pilots on American F-16 fighter jets.

We’ve already licensed all the weapons…nothing really big left to fight for

he added.

At the same time, Kuleba did not reveal whether the counter-offensive, which had been expected for months, had already been started by the Ukrainian troops in the meantime. He stated that it is not important when the attack will begin, but that it ends with a Ukrainian victory.

NATO membership cannot end this war, but NATO membership will prevent more wars

he emphasized. As he said, the security of the region is best served if they reach the point where Ukraine can become a member of the North Atlantic Alliance.
