Graham toured secret Ukraine drone factory day before he died
US Senator Lindsey Graham visited a secret Ukrainian military drone factory just one day before his sudden death Saturday evening age 71.
The South Carolina Republican toured a production facility belonging to Ukrainian defence company SkyFall as part of his trip to Ukraine — hours before the announcement of his death from a sudden illness, Ukraine Pravda reported.
During the visit, Graham, 71, also met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as did his House of Representatives colleague, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX).
On Friday, Graham said he reached an agreement with the White House on a Russia sanctions bill that the Trump administration is prepared to support.
Graham was shown around a plant where Ukraine’s deadly Vampire bomber drones, also known as “Baba Yaga,” are manufactured.
He said the US can learn a lot from Ukraine’s advancements in UAV technology.
“I believe that it would be a huge mistake for America not to cooperate with Ukraine in the field of drones. They are ready to help us, because we were ready to support Ukraine in the most difficult times,” Graham was quoted as saying.
