Key Statements by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the NATO Defense Industry Forum<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fToday, war has changed fundamentally. Drones and the technology of remote warfare represent a revolutionary shift.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUkrainian maritime drones not only destroy military ships; they have evolved into multi-purpose platforms capable of attacking various land and air targets from the sea.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUkraine has increased its success rate in shooting down and intercepting the \u201cshahid\u201d drones used by russia to 90%.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUkraine shoots down thousands of drones every week. No other country has the capability to defend against drones on this scale.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fThe Ukrainian defense sector is expanding its capabilities even during the war.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUkraine has shattered the notion that russia could have a strategic rear. Yesterday, Ukrainian drones struck an oil refinery in Siberia.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fThis is the new reality \u2014 there is no major oil refinery in russia that Ukrainian drones cannot reach.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUnlike russia, Ukraine is not fighting for geopolitical gains. Ukrainians are defending themselves and raising the cost of the war for the aggressor every day. And by doing so, we are moving closer to peace.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fThe EU, NATO, Turkey, the Gulf states, and our other friends are already reliable partners of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fEurope must build its own effective anti-ballistic capabilities. This work has already begun. It cannot wait until 2030, because there are already not enough Patriot systems.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0fUkraine\u2019s place is in NATO, because NATO with Ukraine is an alliance for the future. NATO must now respond to the challenges of the modern world alongside Ukraine, drawing on the strength of our defense industry and the resilience and experience of our people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
