A | BRUSSELS -- For the first time, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy joined a meeting of more than 50 defense leaders from around the world Wednesday to make a personal pitch for military aid, in the face of lagging political support in the U.S. and new pressure on allies to send weapons to bolster Israel’s war with Hamas.His presence underscored growing concerns about cracks in what has been staunch international backing for Kyiv in its war against Russia's invasion, and worries that Ukrainian forces haven't made measurable progress in the counteroffensive, as winter closes in.“Next Monday, we will mark the 600th day of our resistance to Russia’s full scale aggression against our people, against Ukraine. And today, no one can say for sure how many more days we will have to defend our independence and to defend our identity,” Zelenskyy told the gathering as they opened the meeting. “But we can already say several things which I think are important. First, Putin will not achieve Ukraine. Second, Russia cannot afford a new arms race. And third, democracy can win this battle.”The meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, hosted by the U.S., comes as Ukraine is desperately seeking more weapons to help its troops regain ground from Russian forces before the muddy weather sets in. But political chaos in Congress stalled approval of new Ukraine funding, and there has been growing opposition among some lawmakers to any increase in spending. Speaking as he entered NATO headquarters, Zelenskyy noted the Israel war, and said Ukrainians understand such tragedy. But he was also quick to detail Ukraine's ongoing need for air defense systems and long-range missiles “to push Russia out of our land.”U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters traveling with him to Brussels that support for Ukraine continues unabated. He said a number of allies will announce they are sending additional weapons and other support to Kyiv. A key demand has been more air defense systems and munitions.“The energy, in my view, is still there,” said Austin. “And I will reassure them that we remain committed to this.”He echoed those thoughts as he opened the meeting, asserting that Ukraine is making steady progress in the war. And he said allies during this meeting will focus not only on meeting Kyiv's immediate needs but also on setting up plans to coordinate investments in Ukraine's future forceThe contact group is the main forum for raising contributions of weapons, equipment and training for Kyiv’s war effort. It meets about once a month, in person and virtually, and this is the 16th gathering.Zelenskyy, who was greeted with applause as he entered the building, went immediately into a private session with Austin and U.S. Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.Speaking to reporters as he came in, Zelenskyy reiterated his country's need for long-range missiles and ammunition.“It’s very important that there are priorities. There are air defense systems. These are not just basic words. These are very concrete things and we need them,” Zelenskyy said.Following that meeting, the 31 allies and Ukraine will take part in the first NATO-Ukraine Council at this level. The forum was formally established in July as part of efforts to bring Kyiv closer to the alliance. It allows NATO and Kyiv to discuss issues of common interest and concern.The new package of U.S. aid includes AIM-9M missiles for air defense, counter-drone systems, munitions for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), artillery, electronic warfare equipment, demolition munitions, anti-armor systems and more than 16 million rounds of small arms ammunition.The weapons are provided under presidential drawdown authority, so will be taken from Pentagon stocks and delivered quickly to the battlefield. ___Follow AP’s coverage of the war in Ukraine at https://apnews.com/hub/russia-ukraine。 阳光倾泻 镜头下的红墙白雪 透着朦胧的意境 来新宾 畅玩冰雪项目 游览诗意美景 感受万物晶莹 银装素裹中 透出别样的神韵 最适合身在其中 来一组氛围感大片 ↓↓↓ 打卡第一站：白雪红墙 白雪红墙就是绝配！ 在红墙下驻足， 看雪花缓缓飘落， 冬日氛围感这不就来了？ · 到清永陵，领略白雪红墙的古建魅力； · 到赫图阿拉城，全方位体验非遗魅力； · 到赫图阿拉村，品尝东北特色、满族特色菜，住东北火炕，与朋友围炉夜话。 打卡第二站：雾凇林海 天地素白，玉树琼枝， 透过林梢白雪仰望澄澈蓝天， 或是近距离拍摄冰雪， 电影感十足。
