I met with @bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz. I thanked Germany for its military support, primarily for the air defense systems that protect Ukrainians from attacks every single day. I informed Friedrich about the latest Russian attacks and spoke about our interceptor drones, which are already shooting down dozens of “shaheds” in a single attack. I’m grateful for the willingness to invest in scaling up our drone production and for the words of support for our people. We also discussed the battlefield situation, cooperation with partners, and Ukraine’s European integration. Germany is precisely the country that has the clout and authority to help unblock our path to the EU. That is why we deeply value your strong and resolute stance. I thank Germany for its readiness to assist both with weapons and with recovery. The Chancellor and I agreed to stay in constant contact and work together for peace and security.
