    • Ukrainian arms production has expanded rapidly during war
  • PM says domestic production tripled last year
  • Says 65% more funds set aside for arms purchases in 2025

KYIV, Oct 2 (Reuters) - Ukraine can produce four million drones annually and is quickly ramping up its production of other weapons, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in comments authorised for publication on Wednesday.

Speaking on Tuesday to executives from dozens of foreign arms manufacturers in Kyiv, Zelenskiy said Ukraine had already contracted to produce 1.5 million drones this year.

Drone production was virtually non-existent in Ukraine before Russia’s invasion in February 2022.
