Volodymyr Zelensky Says Ukraine Does Not Want to Rely Solely on Allied Military Aid
Ukraine aims to and really can become a donor of security for all our neighbors once it can guarantee its own safety, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said.
Kyiv: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday that Kyiv was ramping up domestic military production in cooperation with partners as it aims to guarantee its own defence capabilities and become a donor of security.
"Ukraine does not want to depend only on partners. Ukraine aims to and really can become a donor of security for all our neighbors once it can guarantee its own safety", he told participants in the joint Ukraine-U.S. defense conference in Washington.
Zelenskiy, whose remarks were posted on the presidential website, said the plan was "absolutely realistic."
"I invite all American defense companies to cooperate with Ukraine. I am confident that together we can create a new and powerful arsenal of freedom, which will be a reliable helper for all free nations of the world."
