Last year, Ukraine began negotiations on the conclusion of a bilateral security agreement with a number of countries. The initiatives provide defense support for Ukraine as it enters the North Atlantic Alliance.
Ukraine and the Czech Republic have begun the process of negotiating a bilateral security agreement. The Office of the President announced this on Thursday, April 18.
The first round of negotiations was conducted by the Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Igor Zhovkva.
“The Czech Republic shows continued leadership in supporting Ukraine and encourages other partners to implement bold and important initiatives, in particular, to supply our country with EU and NATO ammunition,” Zhovkva emphasized.
The Czech side was represented by David Konetsky, Director General for Security and Multilateral Relations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country.
A schedule was also agreed upon for further negotiations so that the presidents of the two countries could sign an agreement in the near future.
It should be noted that the UK became the first country to enter into a final agreement. Since then, bilateral agreements with Ukraine have also been signed by Germany, Denmark, France, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands, Finland and Latvia. Intentions to conclude both agreements have also been announced in Greece and Estonia.
Let’s recall that in July 2023, at the NATO summit in Vilnius, the G7 countries approved a declaration providing long-term support for Ukraine in the field of security and economy. 32 states have joined this declaration.
