Zelenskyy tells G-7 leaders Ukraine will need $5 to $ 7 billion a month to fight war

In a video message played during the G-7 summit Sunday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy pressed the world leaders to continue their support while plainly stating the cost of war.

Qazet.az reports that Zelenskyy expressed gratitude for the solidarity exhibited around the globe but also urged the continual need for arms, sanctions, and aid. He referenced the Marshall Plan as he expressed the eventual need for post-war reconstruction.

"As long as the war continues, we need $5 billion to $7 billion a month in support. When the war is over, we will have to rebuild everything destroyed by Russia for a sum exceeding $ 600 billion," he said. "This is a lot for our state. This is not possible for Ukraine. But this is possible for you."
