Zelenskyy instructs PM to further increase funding for brigades to purchase drones
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy instructed Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal to increase funding for brigades to purchase drones in the coming days.
"There was also a separate report by Pavlo Palisa regarding the amount of direct funds from the brigade directly – for the additional purchase of drones. A decision was recently made on the amount of such direct money. But now I see that this amount is also not enough. I instructed the Prime Minister to further increase funding for the brigades in the coming days – to increase it by an order of magnitude," Zelenskyy said in a video address on Monday evening.
