President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Friday that senior Ukrainian officials agreed in an "emotional" discussion that the country needs to make more weaponry domestically and speed up production, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

Zelenskyy said munitions production was the focus of a meeting with senior officials, including his defence and foreign ministers and top military commanders.

"We discussed the issue of drone production and providing drones to all elements of the defence and security forces in great detail, even emotionally," he said in his nightly video address.

"We also talked today about the production of missiles, electronic warfare systems and cooperation with partners...The main thing is not just to have contracts and funding for them but also the speed of actual production and real supply."
