| | | Nearly 60% of weapons used by Ukraine’s military are domestically produced, Volodymyr Zelenskyy says, already exceeding a target he set two months ago. “During this war, Ukraine has reached the point where nearly 60% of the weapons we have, the weapons in the hands of our soldiers, are Ukrainian-made,” the Ukrainian president said on Saturday in his nightly video address. “And these are powerful weapons, with many advanced features.” In his address, he also pointed to a joint project to undertake weapons production in Denmark. The president in July called on his reshuffled government to take measures to boost production of weapons made in Ukraine to more than 50%, higher than at any other time since independence from Soviet rule in 1991.
