Zelenskyy

Ukraine has the capacity to increase drone production by 40% this year, but additional funding is needed.

This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Censor.NET reports with reference to Ukrinform.

"We must support all forms of defense cooperation, especially those that help us become more technologically advanced and use drones of all kinds: in the air, on the ground, and at sea. Ukraine is ready to increase drone production by 40% in the near future, already this year. Our factories have the necessary capacity, we only lack funding. And this needs to be resolved," Zelenskyy said.

The President called on the countries participating in the forum "to be faster in drones than our enemies" and thanked the Czech Republic for its initiative to supply ammunition, emphasizing that joint efforts could change the course of the war.
