Details. "First and foremost, we must destroy the defence industry of russia, its military machine, and the number one target in it is the missile and drone industry. We must cut off their oxygen so that they could not manufacture missiles, could not establish mass production of attack drones and thus could no longer terrorise the entire territory of Ukraine," he said.
Mr. Kuleba stressed that his personal "number one priority" in this regard was any sanctions and any steps that could strengthen sanctions and block the circumvention of sanctions against russia.
He expressed his wish for these sanctions to include disconnection of russia from the SWIFT system, sanctions against the religious and oligarchic strata of russia, as well as against the gas and nuclear industries of the occupiers.
