"If Bakhmut fell, then other cities would be next. So in order to save lives there… we have to fight in Bakhmut as long as we physically can," Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba said in an interview to BBC, APA reports.

Mr. Kuleba said Western allies were not giving Ukraine military support fast enough because they had not been ready for a conflict on the same scale as World War One. And what he needed was artillery shells.

"We want partners to act faster," he said. "And if one delivery is postponed for one day, it means that someone is going to die on the front line," he added.
