(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Foreign funds have begun to work in Ukraine's defense industry in a real and visible way, and this is a great achievement.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said this in a video message, Ukrinform reports citing the President's website.
I wish you health, fellow Ukrainians!
Today was an eventful day.
A report from Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Ihor Klymenko regarding the detention of the suspect in the murder of Iryna Farion. I have asked the minister to present all the necessary information to the public and journalists. Of course, procedural actions are still ongoing, and all the circumstances of this case are being clarified. There should be more public information tomorrow.
Secondly, I had a very detailed and long conversation with Minister for Strategic Industries Oleksandr Kamyshin. We analyzed the work of the ministry and the relevant enterprises in our defense sector-what has been achieved and what is planned. There are good results. Many different aspects were discussed, including our armored vehicles, drones, and artillery. I am grateful to everyone working at our defense enterprises, in our defense industry. It is evident that the sector is becoming entirely different-stronger and more efficient. It is crucial that foreign funds have finally started to work noticeably and effectively in defense production, which is a significant achievement for us. Not only the state budget funds but also partner investments in defense production in Ukraine. Today, we have also decided on the updated tasks for Ukroboronprom and our missile specialists. In many areas, we now have not just potential or some specific results but also supplies to meet the needs of the Defense and Security Forces – growing supplies. Additionally, we are preparing steps to increase the quantity and quality of our long-range drones. Ukraine will always be able to defend its interests.

Today, I also held a meeting with those responsible for state-owned enterprises. Those that were once unprofitable or not always controlled by our state. Now they work exactly as they should. And they give money to the state budget. These are tens of billions of hryvnias that strengthen Ukraine.
And one more thing.
Today, I had a meeting with the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council about the decisions made by the NSDC and the Staff and the planning of new ones.
Thank you to everyone who is enhancing Ukraine's capabilities – capabilities of our state, our industries, and our people. Thank you to everyone fighting for our independence.
Glory to Ukraine!
