Description
"Ukrainian warriors today are sacrificing their lives for the core values of democracy and freedom. They need back up from your side, dear partners. And this back up is weapons," says Ukraine's freshly-nominated Defence Minister Rustem Umerov during the Yalta European Strategy meeting in Kyiv. Umerov was appointed this week after Zelensky called for "new approaches" in Ukraine's defence ministry. The 41-year-old's appointment marks a significant change for Ukraine more than a year and a half into Russia's invasion, and follows corruption scandals in the ministry. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
