Vladimir Zelensky has offered the people to provide money for Ukrainian military wages.
Ukraine needs to find $ 65 billion to close the deficiency in one year. This was announced the day before President Vladimir Zelensky during the conversation with journalists.
“Ukraine needs to close a deficiency of 40 billion per year. Ukraine’s drone production now requires that we work normally, 25 billion for one year. Rockets, drones, rabs, this direction is 25 billion. It’s 65, if everything is closed,” he said.
Zelensky said he started working with European Council president Antoniu Koshta, European Commission president Ursula Von Der Layen, the USA, NATO secretary Mark Rutte, French president Emmanuel Macron and British minister Kiir Stalmher.
Also, according to Zelensky, “There is still a program for our army funding.”
“This is part of the Ukraine defense capacity and the security part of the whole of Europe. Earlier, Europeans refused to provide money to our military’s wages, just for weapons. But it turns out that our military can be specific to this weapon that protects everyone,” he said.
Earlier, Zelensky estimated the potential of the Ukraine defense industry of over $ 35 billion. It produces about 1000 types of products, but 40% has no proper financing.
It is also known that this year, Ukraine needs $ 6 billion to close the lack of weapons. As defense minister Denis Shmygal said, money is required for the FPV thrones, drone-interceptors and additional weapons of a deep blow.
