Zelenskyy announces EUR 750 mln, agreements for another $4-5 bln in external financing for drone production in Ukraine in 2024
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announces EUR 750 million and agreements for another $4-5 billion in external financing for drone production in Ukraine in 2024.
"We have already received EUR 750 million, which is about UAH 30 billion. The reality is UAH 150 billion, which Ukraine has already given for domestic production. The task has been set, we already have agreements for about $4-5 billion, we will receive more for our own production by the end of this year," Zelenskyy said in an interview with the national marathon on Friday.
The president said Ukraine would thus spend UAH 300-350 billion on domestic drone production in 2024.
