Americans will teach Ukrainian servicemen to use Patriot air defence systems much faster than it usually takes, ArmyInform has reported.

Defence Minister Oleksiy Reznikov said that the minimum training of servicemen to use Patriot air defence systems usually takes 10 months.

However, American partners have committed to train Ukrainian soldiers in 10 weeks.

"Today's war, which is a war in motion, is provided by the resources of our partners, but most importantly by the spirit and will of Ukraine. And I believe that we should always be able to say thank you," Reznikov emphasized.

Ukrainian servicemen arrived in the United States for training on 16 January.
