He said this during a speech at the presentation of the Sumy Region Development Strategy, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"We are ready to fully support the reconstruction of Sumy airport: from us - funding, from you - the project as soon as possible, as it can’t be otherwise, only the shortest terms of realization," said Zelensky.
