Production of domestic weapons is a "production of freedom" for Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a video message on Tuesday.

“Today, I also held a meeting with the Ministry of Strategic Industries. Oleksandr Kamyshin reported on the results in the production of drones and ammunition. We are ramping up production. It is very important that we are adding new positions and the adoption of new weapon models is underway. Domestic production of drones, shells, and military vehicles is literally the production of our freedom, the freedom of Ukrainians and Ukraine,” Zelenskyy said.

In such conditions of a full-scale war, he noted, “it is force that is the basis of freedom.”

“And by the way, today the Minister reported separately on the production of long-range drones, which is one of the key tasks for the defense industry,” Zelenskyy stressed.
