Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with a Raytheon delegation to discuss expanding cooperation on air defense, including the potential co-production of interceptors for Patriot systems. The delegation was led by Raytheon Vice President Joseph DeAntona. Zelenskyy thanked the U.S. company for its assistance in helping protect Ukrainian civilians from Russian attacks and said strengthening air defenses remains Ukraine’s top priority. The meeting focused on plans to advance joint work on protecting Ukrainian airspace. Zelenskyy said he had previously discussed interceptor production with U.S. President Donald Trump in Ankara and that efforts should now move forward.
