"We thoroughly reviewed the situation regarding the execution of contracts and the procurement of everything that is needed. This is not only about countering ballistic missiles — it is also about frontline air defense, missiles against drones, and interceptors as well. Everything will be provided," the head of state said.
Zelenskyy said that Ukraine’s defense production must reach the level at which all necessary components of air defense systems, including anti-ballistic ones, will be manufactured in Ukraine.
"We are working on this with several countries — it is still too early to disclose the details. But the most important thing is what we need: licenses for us, localization here, results here, in Ukraine. This is a global goal, and we continue to work for it," he added.
Ukrainian drones
- Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine General Oleksandr Syrskyi said earlier that in March, the number of combat sorties by interceptor drones and the number of destroyed Russian targets rose by almost 55% compared with February.
