President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with representatives of the U.S. defense company Raytheon, which manufactures, among other systems, the Patriot air defense complex.
The head of state informed the partners about the situation on the battlefield and the intensification of Russian strikes against civilians and critical infrastructure in Ukraine.
“We discussed Raytheon’s production capabilities, possible avenues for cooperation to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense, increase long-range capabilities, and develop Ukrainian-American production. There are decisions that can enhance the protection of life in Ukraine. We are working at all levels to ensure their implementation,” Zelenskyy said.
The President thanked Raytheon for its ongoing support and readiness to continue its partnership with Ukraine.
