Quote: “I have held a meeting of the Staff of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. Many details, specifically concerning planning the next year and supplying our defence and security forces, were discussed.
The reports by the Ministry of Strategic Industries of Ukraine, Ministry of Defence of Ukraine and by the General Staff were heard. The distribution of orders and an increase in a number of manufacturers were discussed. At the moment, hundreds of companies are involved in key productions, and I am grateful to every company which achieves results needed by our soldiers. 2024 must become the year of significant growth of domestic defence production. We will provide contracts and budget.
Special attention was paid to the production of all types of drones we need, specifically of FPV drones and ammunition for them. Ukraine must be able to cover all its needs in drones.”
Details: Zelenskyy added that he had heard the reports of Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and commanders of different fronts about the situation in the combat zone, specifically the specific needs of the army.
Zelenskyy separately thanked the Ukrainian Air Force for destroying another ship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet and reiterated that the Russians will never know peace in Ukraine.
