Quote: "We also know that one of the key directions selected for future Russian strikes against Ukraine – military, political, and propaganda alike – involves Ukrainian companies demonstrating progress in the development of all types of missile technologies.

Russia views this as a strategic threat to itself – Ukraine's capability to develop its own ballistic system and localise the production of antiballistic defence. We will respond."
