In his evening address, Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of this task, which encompasses weapons production and procurement, as well as the timely supply of everything necessary to Ukrainian troops.
Zelenskyy stressed that during the war, these processes must operate as efficiently as possible to strengthen the Ukrainian Armed Forces. He also announced that Junior Lieutenant Vladyslav Polskyi has been awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine for his actions during a Russian drone attack on August 15.
