Most observers believe that president Volodymyr Zelensky flew to the United States for batteries of Patriot anti-aircraft missiles. In fact, of far greater importance for the future course of the war with the Russian Federation would be the transfer of long-range missiles to the HIMARS strategy by the Americans and to agree to support them with the winter offensive against the Russians in Ukraine. And that is most likely the main goal of the first visit to the US by a Ukrainian president.
