Zelensky accuses China of blocking the supply of DJI Mavic drones to Ukraine and Europe, but providing them to Russia.
From: Kyiv Post by Nick Pehlman
President Volodymyr Zelensky said China has stopped selling drones to Kyiv and other European nations, while continuing shipments to Russia.
Drones have been a defining featureof the War in Ukraine, providing both sides with the opportunity to see the battlefield and strike deep behind enemy lines. Ukraine was initially entirely dependent on imported Chinese drones, such as the DJI Mavic, but now has the capacity to manufacture a large number of drones domestically.
“Chinese Mavic is open for Russians but is closed for Ukrainians,” Zelensky told a group of reporters on Tuesday. “There are production lines on Russian territory where there are Chinese representatives,” reported Bloomberg.
