Secretary General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Jens Stoltenberg says that critical medical supplies will arrive in Ukraine next week to counter the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. Our Pandemic Response Trust Fund will be used to deliver critical medical supplies. Including portable oxygen concentrators, mobile X-ray units, personal protective equipment – and next week, a large quantity of disinfectant, he said at a joint press conference with Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal in Brussels on February 9, according to an UNIAN correspondent.
Stoltenberg recalled that the Alliance and Ukraine mutually supported each other during the COVID-19 pandemic. One example is that we have supported each other throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. NATO s disaster relief centre has coordinated the delivery of medical aid to Ukraine. And Allies have chartered Ukrainian [Mriya] aircraft to airlift equipment to counter the pandemic, he said.
