President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal and set him tasks regarding the army. Zelenskyy wrote about this in Telegram.
According to Zelensky, an audit of agreements that require accelerated contracting is currently underway. In particular, this concerns drones, and especially interceptor drones.
"I instructed to urgently conclude all relevant contracts for drones that our Defense Forces of Ukraine need. We also discussed the provision of deep strikes - the frequency of our strikes, priority tasks. I am grateful to all the units involved for their accuracy," — Zelensky wrote.
Also on Monday, Shmyhal is preparing a presentation of the Ministry's specific work program and key priorities that will be implemented in the short term, in the coming weeks, and in the medium term, over the next six months.
As a reminder, on July 17, the Verkhovna Rada appointed former Prime Minister Shmyhal as Minister of Defense upon the nomination of President Zelensky. 267 people's deputies voted for the minister's candidacy.
