Volodymyr Zelensky is currently in New York seeking additional military aid to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia, reports France 24.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian arms manufacturers express their frustration: they claim the country’s production capacity far exceeds domestic needs and that Ukraine could generate significant revenue by exporting its weapons.
A year ago, the Ukrainian president had theoretically approved such exports, but in practice, little has changed. Companies in the sector are becoming impatient and anxious about the situation, notes the France 24 report.
