The Ukrainian leader was asked to comment on the opinion of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. He, in turn, said that Ukrainian drone experts could cooperate with British ones to strengthen Europe's defense.
I have not discussed this with Starmer or other leaders from the Middle East or the Persian Gulf. We are at war, but we remain open: we have excellent specialists in the field of drones and are ready to share our experience with allies - from Great Britain and the USA to Italy, France, Germany
Commenting on the idea of Ukraine as Europe's first line of defense, the head of state emphasized that Ukrainian resistance is effectively part of European security.
We are your defense, and Europeans understand this well; they have been helping us since the beginning of the conflict. You see it now in the Middle East: planes and missiles alone are not enough against Iranian drones. Whoever invests in our drone technologies will gain our practical experience

Earlier, foreign media reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy offered Middle Eastern countries experts in shooting down Iranian drones. This would happen if the leaders of these countries convinced Vladimir Putin to agree to a month-long truce in the war against Ukraine.
