The message of the Ukrainian president was an occasion for the jokes of social network users.
One of them asked, but what will the MLRS be firing at, since the ammunition depots have already been destroyed.
Another user expressed confidence that once fighting vehicles were being repaired at a Ukrainian plant, that the paint would peel off after the first rain.
If they were repaired as “Hammer” (120-mm Ukrainian mortar), then it is better not to, the user Nikolay noted.
There is nothing of his own, but Poroshenko can boast strangers, Anatoly added.
