He noted that the focus is primarily on unmanned aerial vehicles and long-range missiles.

Quote: "Of course, we cannot publicly disclose our existing plans and our capabilities, but the prospect is clear: to respond symmetrically to all Russian threats and challenges. They in Russia must clearly feel the consequences of what they are doing against Ukraine. And they will."

Details: Zelenskyy outlined that Ukraine must produce attack drones, interceptors, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, as they are "key elements" in this war.

Background

  • On 26 May, against the backdrop of Russian strikes over the previous three days, Zelenskyy noted that the attacks were becoming more brazen and large-scale every night. Russia has launched over 900 attack drones against Ukraine in three days. It has also used ballistic and cruise missiles.
  • On the same day, Zelenskyy ordered that Ukraine's production of interceptor drones be increased and missile production accelerated at a Staff meeting of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief.
