Stoltenberg noted that during his visit to Kyiv, he did not hear any calls for NATO troops to be sent. Instead, it was about the Alliance increasing its support for Ukraine by supplying more weapons.

"I visited Kyiv last week and they informed me of the challenges they face: Russia has gained ground and there is a risk that it will gain further ground. It's not a big territory, but to stop all this, to allow Ukrainians to defend themselves, they need to send ammunition, they need weapons
