Today's "Shaheed" strikes on houses in Brovary and Glevas are drones that are already manufactured in Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has appealed to the West to block Russia's access to foreign UAV components.
Points of attention
- Ukrainian President Zelenskyy calls on the West to block Russia's access to foreign drone components to stop the ongoing drone terror against Ukrainians.
- Coordinated international efforts and pressure on Russia are crucial for achieving peace, according to Zelenskyy.
- Zelenskyy emphasizes the importance of cooperation with America and other partners for ensuring energy security in the region.
- Russia's self-made 'shaheeds' rely on foreign components, highlighting the significance of cutting off all supplies for stopping the terror.
- Zelenskyy underlines the need to work with international partners to secure strong positions for Ukraine and Europe amidst the ongoing conflict.
Russia launches self-made shaheeds in Ukraine — Zelenskyy
Initially, Iran transferred ready-made "shaheeds" to Russia, then their own production was mastered in Tatarstan, one of the national territories that Moscow still controls.
And although these “shaheeds” are actually Russian, they still couldn’t have been made there without foreign supplies. Each such “shaheed,” like every Russian missile, is made on the basis of foreign components — critical components without which Russian terror would be impossible. Thirty-one “shaheeds” last night are approximately 2,635 components from other countries: microcircuits, switches, transceivers.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy
President of Ukraine
Zelensky noted that all supplies of any components for terror to Russia must be blocked in order to stop this terror.
And this applies not only to the protection of life in Ukraine. Now the Russian "shaheeds" are hitting the homes of our people, our infrastructure, but at any moment the Russians can transfer terror to any other country — wherever they are ordered.
Zelenskyy named the key to peace
We are coordinating our international work, today there were relevant meetings, and primarily regarding the United States of America and our European partners. Peace through strength is possible, we are absolutely sure of this. The main thing is not to slow down and to put pressure. To put pressure on Russia, on the only subject that wants this war, that is guilty of this war.
It is Russia that is trying to drag out the aggression and occupation. Of course, energy resources, and specifically oil, are one of the most important keys to peace, to real security.
Zelensky added that Europe needs to work more with America and other partners in the world, rather than with Russia, regarding energy resources.
We are preparing our diplomacy, our international communication, to guarantee strong positions not only for Ukraine, but also for our entire Europe.
