After the Peace Summit: The President of Ukraine chaired a Staff meeting. Focus on drones

On 17 June, Volodymyr Zelenskyy chaired a Supreme Commander-in-Chief’s Staff meeting. It took place after the Head of State returned from the Peace Summit held in Switzerland.

The Staff meeting discussed the operational situation on all axes and at the borders, the dynamics of implementation of national contracts and the receipt of aid from defence packages announced by our partners.

In particular, the Minister of Defence Rustem Umierov, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi, and the Chief of the General Staff Major-General Anatolii Barhylevych reported.

The new Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, Vadym Sukharevskyi, reported on all types of drones - air, ground, and sea - and all types of missions: from tactical FPVs and evacuation platforms to the so-called Deep Strike drones.

"The industry is actively developing, with a growing number of drones being produced and successfully deployed.

Ukraine leads the way in technological progress in this area. Last week, during talks with other leaders, we saw great interest in our experience. After the victory, it will become a high-tech part of Ukrainian exports", - emphasised the President of Ukraine.
