President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting on Wednesday, February 14, on the issue of Ukrainian capabilities to counter Russian drones.

"I listened to the report on current developments. We are working on both electronic warfare systems and air defense systems. Already about half of the existing systems are Ukrainian-made, developed by our people. Of course, there are also joint projects with partners. And, in fact, there are quite a few productions launched and developments slated for production. The key thing now is to integrate all of them into the practice of applying at the front. Proper adjustment and reconfiguration based on real combat needs, proper deployment, proper and systemic integration into combat tactics," the president said in an evening address.

The correct use of existing systems and the maximum increase in domestic production will ultimately protect the lives of Ukrainian soldiers and expand the capabilities of the army at the front, Zelenskyy emphasized.

"This year must yield more results for Ukraine – exactly the ones that will restore security for Ukrainian operations. I am grateful to all our developers and manufacturers, to everyone who develops a modern technological component in the Defense Forces. The state will take all the financial, organizational and regulatory steps required. And we must realize that everything that our state and our people will now learn to produce for the sake of our Ukrainian goals in the war will definitely become part of Ukrainian exports after the war, after we achieve our goals. Absolutely fair ones. Ukraine's global role is to be a security donor, a security exporter. Ukrainians know how to be strong and will always be strong and help others," the president concluded.
