He made the statement on his X page.

“Ukraine’s long-range strength is key to forcing Russia to end the war. The longer we can reach, the shorter the war will be,” Sybiha emphasized.

According to him, the number of successful strikes on Russian military targets is increasing weekly. The diplomat stressed that this has been made possible by a “well-calculated, precise, and smart campaign to degrade the Russian war machine and force Moscow to end the war sooner.”

The head of Ukraine’s foreign ministry highlighted that in the future, Ukraine’s long-range arsenal will serve as a guarantee against any new aggression from Russia.

“We have the technology and ability to produce more strength, but we need more investments to scale it up. I urge partners to increase contributions. Build in Ukraine and build with Ukraine. Start new joint projects. This is a two-way street, because those who help Ukraine now get new opportunities for their own defense potential in the future,” he stressed.

  • On the evening of Saturday, November 1, the Russian occupation army launched attack drones against Ukraine. In Odesa region, a drone hit a parking lot, causing fatalities. In Chernihiv, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson, people were injured.
