In Jeddah, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with Ukrainian military experts who have been working in Saudi Arabia for over a week now.
The Head of State heard a report on the team’s initial results and conclusions at both the operational and broader levels. The main task of Ukrainian air defense experts in the region is to identify challenges and determine what changes are needed to strengthen the protection of people and lives from Iranian “shaheds” and missiles.
The President thanked the military experts for their prompt and thorough work.
“There are concrete steps we can take together with our partners. Even in such a short time, Ukrainian experts were able to share extensive expertise and demonstrate how we in Ukraine protect our lives and infrastructure,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized.
The Head of State noted that Ukraine’s expertise is unique, and recognized as such, and that is why everyone is so interested in Ukrainian technologies and experience.
According to the President, Ukraine is particularly ready to support the protection of those countries that help us defend our independence.
During the meeting, the participants discussed key aspects of strengthening air defense in Saudi Arabia, primarily approaches to shooting down drones.
“Ukraine is ready for long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation. I am proud of our people and the strength of Ukraine,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed.
