Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he is in talks with a U.S. company to jointly produce Patriot air defence systems. Multiple outlets report that Zelenskyy met with representatives of Raytheon in Kyiv to discuss the proposed cooperation. The discussions focus on the possibility of producing Patriot systems jointly, rather than relying solely on existing supply arrangements. The reports describe the meetings as part of Ukraine’s broader efforts to strengthen its air defence capabilities amid the ongoing conflict. None of the accounts provide details on the timeline, contract terms, or the scale of production. They also do not specify whether the negotiations are at an early exploratory stage or have progressed toward a formal agreement. The coverage is based on Zelenskyy’s statements about the talks and the meeting with Raytheon representatives in Kyiv.
