We are talking about plans for joint production of several types and types of weapons, organization of repairs, training of specialists and technical personnel.
The Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Strategic Industries signed a joint memorandum of understanding with the Belgian Ministry of Defense. The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine announced that it will give strength to the development of bilateral relations, including in the field of defense production. This was announced on Monday, January 29, by Deputy Minister of Defense Lieutenant General Ivan Gavrilyuk.
He noted that this memorandum is very important in the context of the development of the domestic defense-industrial complex, the creation of joint ventures with partners, and the localization of defense production in Ukraine. Gavrilyuk noted that this is one of the Ukrainian priorities.
According to him, the memorandum refers to intentions to implement common projects aimed at increasing the potential and volume of production of the Ukrainian defense industry. We are talking about plans for joint production of several types and types of weapons, organization of repairs, training of specialists and technical personnel.
It is also planned to implement other measures aimed at building a modern defense industry in Ukraine.
“Ukraine is very interested in creating joint ventures that will work according to international standards,” Gavrilyuk emphasized, expressing confidence in further fruitful and mutually beneficial cooperation.
We remind you that last week a seminar was held, attended by representatives of 33 Ukrainian and 8 Belgian companies, the Belgian Security and Defense Association (BSDI), as well as representatives of the defense and security sector of the government of both countries.
As reported, the Belgian authorities will transfer more than 600 million euros of military aid to Ukraine. This amount is interest from Russian fixed assets.
