i'm happy that we have co-productions already we started this but i hope that in future we will have more so i think uh er defense number one longer till as i said and of course if you will ask me what can change yes we need long range yes we need long range
Somebody, by the way, I had a conversation with Santos, as you mentioned, at the very beginning, and bipartisan support, we are thankful.
But we spoke about the Mohawks, for example.
I said it's not only about the Mohawks, there are some similar long-range things, important, very important things.
Look, there are military targets on the territory of Russia which have huge air defense around because they need to save.
That's why it's not enough to have drones.
We need, you know, some other package.
So if we want to answer because they attack us and we have to answer, that's why we raised this topic with American side.
In any way, this is a decision of generals and of course I will support our soldiers, especially commanders who are there.
which they how they can control the situation or it's too expensive for us we can't lose the most important for us this is our soldiers and and of course they have to to they need to decide on the battlefield decide the place and but you have to know
The most expensive month during these three years, the nine months, these ones for Russians, because of Pokrovsk, they lost in October more than 25,000 people.
It's only, I mean, this is 25,000 that what we control from drones.
So there are video effects of that.
So I don't know the total number of their losses during October, but only fixed by video, 25,000.
Look, the question of people, of course, is the most sensitive and the most difficult and difficult for me.
for soldiers, for people, for society, and for partners.
And of course we don't have a really comparable number of people, because you know the size of Russia, and you know the size of Ukraine.
This is the balance.
You can't, even if soldiers ask to mobilize more people, you have to balance.
It's a very difficult question.
