"Zelensky is unaware of Hegseths plans. Zelensky: We are discussing this with President Trump. He told me that America wants to buy drones made in Ukraine. I think this is mutually beneficial. Hegseth: We will strengthen the American drone manufacturing base by producing thousands of U.S.-made products with a priority on Buy American. We will arm combat units with a wide range of affordable American-made drones using our world-leading engineers and AI specialists. - SK"
