Among the recent achievements, the Minister of Defence noted the introduction of a system for military personnel record-keeping and the launch of a mechanism for changing duty stations between the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the National Guard of Ukraine.

“The principal priority for the next 100 days is to ramp up production and frontline deliveries of Ukrainian weapons. Special emphasis will be placed on drones, including long-range systems, interceptors, FPV platforms, and other innovative solutions,” Minister Denys Shmyhal said.

The Minister of Defence of Ukraine outlined plans to launch a controlled weapons export program, to fully operationalize Defence City, and to further support Ukrainian manufacturers. 

The DOT-Chain Defence project, the Minister of Defence emphasized, will be expanded to cover 70% of all drone procurements.

“We will continue expanding our digital products, with special attention to medical support. We continue working daily with partners to attract more investment into Ukraine’s defense industry and ensure more weapons here and now. The goals and objectives are clearly defined. The team and resources for their implementation are in place. We continue our work,” emphasized Denys Shmyhal.
