The authorities of Ukraine are starting the renewed work of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine

What is known about the updated work of the NSDC

Volodymyr Zelenskyi highlighted the main provisions.

The first is more predictability of this function. We need to strengthen Ukraine's ability to predict and influence the processes on which the national security of our state depends, he said.

He called the second task the continuation of all current tasks of the NSDC system. We should also pay particular attention to our country's sanctions policy.

The third task will be doctrinal work. Clarity of national guidelines and systematic implementation are needed both now and after the war.

The fourth is cyber security and information. He added that the NSDC has the potential to do more to protect against hostile destabilization operations and coordinate all state institutions in this area.

And the fifth task the president called the work of the Staff [of Supreme Commander-in-Chief — Ed], projects of decisions, control over the implementation of decisions — all this, of course, must be continued. The obvious priority is our state's defence and our society's protection.
