Zelenskyy emphasized that Russia continues to ramp up its own production of ballistic missiles.
"I sent a letter to the White House and the US Congress. I hope they will understand and respond. 60–65 anti-ballistic missiles per month compared to current challenges is nothing. This is no secret, and Russia knows it. We need to expand production,"
He noted that he had asked the previous US administration and is asking the current one to grant Ukraine licenses for the production of Patriot missiles.
"We can increase the production of Patriot missiles. This will help us. This will help the Middle East and any other country the United States decides to help. Until we produce a European anti-ballistic system, we will need the support of the United States,"
