According to a statement posted on the presidential website, Zelensky thanked Raytheon for these systems and emphasized that they have helped save many Ukrainian lives.

According to the president, Russia is failing to achieve any of its objectives, which is why it is intensifying attacks on civilian infrastructure and people, including strikes on the energy system. During these attacks, the Russians launch more than 500 drones and dozens of missiles each day.

Raytheon representatives expressed their condolences to Ukrainians who have lost their family members and loved ones in the Russian strikes and assured their readiness to support Ukraine.

Zelensky arrived in the United States for a visit that includes a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.
