US Will Increase Production Of Anti-Ballistic Missiles For Patriot To Protect Ukraine — Zelenskyy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of strengthening Ukraine's air defense during a joint press conference with US presidential special representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Kyiv on September 6. Despite the current relative calm in the capital, Zelenskyy stressed that dependence on a single individual who initiated the war and continues to threaten Ukraine is not acceptable in the modern world.

He highlighted that Ukraine's strengthened battlefield positions give it greater confidence in future discussions with both American and Russian sides. Zelenskyy identified the lack of anti-ballistic capability as a weak point for Ukraine and announced that he would be meeting with officials in Norway and Canada to develop a Ukrainian anti-ballistic system.

He also mentioned that Ukraine is relying on increased production of anti-ballistic missiles for Patriot systems in the United States. US presidential special representatives Witkoff and Kushner arrived in Kyiv after visiting Moscow, where they were greeted by an Ukrainian delegation led by President's Office head Kyrylo Budanov and Deputy Serhii Kyslytsia, as well as Foreign Intelligence Service head Rustem Umerov.
