The share of Ukrainian weapons in the Ukrainian Defense Forces must be brought to 50% in the next six months by increasing our own production, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said during the presentation of the new Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal.

"People should see that Ukraine has its own missiles. In general, regarding weapons, the task is to increase our own production to bring the share of Ukrainian weapons in our Defense Forces to 50% in the next six months. This is absolutely realistic," Zelenskyy said.
