According to Ukrinform, Klitschko said this in a video address released March 17.
"I thank our American partners who will provide a new package of military assistance to Ukraine so that we can defend ourselves. This includes our airspace. I am grateful to Great Britain for supplying our nation with modern defensive weapons, for your support to Ukraine in its fight for freedom and independence. We will hold our ground! We are on our land, we’re fighting for our country and our future! We are determined to win and we will not fall into the traps that Russia tries to drive us into. They already realize that they cannot win the war they started to destroy Ukraine. We will prevail! And we will build our state back! Glory to Ukraine!" Klitschko stated.
