While Ukraine appreciates the support of partners in providing missile defenses, it has long been stating that Russian terror in Ukraine can be completely stopped if allies participated in the shooting down of targets, the efficacy of which has now been demonstrated in Israel. There's no reason this approach cannot be adopted.
As stated when Poland put forward a similar proposal several weeks ago, if NATO countries begin shooting down Russian missiles and drones over Ukraine's skies, it would directly involve them in the conflict — a line the alliance is not willing to cross at this stage.
