President Zelenskyy: Today’s security gains will benefit Ukraine for decades

“We continue our work on the diplomatic front – to ensure that all the necessary conditions are swiftly in place to apply pressure on Russia, to achieve real peace,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on March 12.

I wish you health, fellow Ukrainians!

Today I held a Staff meeting – Technology Staff. The focus was primarily on our drones and the long-range strikes conducted by Ukrainian drones. We analyzed their recent use: the quality of the strikes, the results of their application, and the most effective drone models. The participants included military and government officials, and, most importantly – our manufacturers of drones and other weapons. We managed to discuss many technical details today. The key point is that we need to enhance our weapons’ ability to overcome Russian electronic warfare and air defenses. Of course, we also discussed ways to further increase production: there is still a need for contracts, funding, and investments from our partners. The manufacturers proposed specific technological solutions.
